Apologies for cross posting:

Sent on behalf of Trish Little. She is seeking information on an engraver. As the list-serv cannot accept images, I had to delete the attached images of her original message.


Begin forwarded message:

I am a cataloguer with the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, Australia and I am researching an engraver. Musical scores are not my field and I’m having little luck with online research so I thought I’d try contacting a specialist.
The two items I’m looking at are sheet music from within a larger atlas (details below) and both items bear the name of an engraver that reads: M.elle Hon.ne Aubert sculp.
Have you ever encountered this engraver in your work? I would be most grateful for any research advice you can offer.
Kind regards, Trish Little
