MARQUART, J. B. C. (Belg.). Son of the last; studied metallurgy under his father, and was sent by the government of the Netherlands to learn medal-engraving at the Vienna Mint. Returning after a few months' stay in Austria, he went to Paris where he resided for thirteen years. We then find him filling an official post in government mining works in Hungary, and in 1764, appointed Warden of the Brussels Mint. Pinchart describes a medal by him, probably executed in Austria, of the Archduke Joseph, dated 1755, and signed : MARQVART F. Bibliography. — A. Pinchart, Histoire de la gravure des médailles en Belgique, 1870. — Revue belge de numismatique, 1896, pp. 140, 249, 269.
