JOSSE, L.
JOSSE, L. (French). Goldsmith of the early part of the eighteenth century. M. Guiffrey ascribes to him a medal of Louis XIV., signed L, I, for which he was paid the sum of 400 livres on December 31, 1716. The name reminds one of Moliére's : Vous étes orfévre, M. Josse? As M. Mazerolle does not mention Josse in his recent work on French Medallists, it is possible that Guiffrey has wrongly interpreted the initials L. J. which he has noticed on the medal in question. Bibliography. — J. J. Guiffrey,...
