At the age of fifteen he entered the workshop of the goldsmith Demange Crocq, where he learned the rudiments of drawing with Jacques de Bellange and Claude Deruet as well as the use of the burin. Subsequently, in 1608 he found Rome, at the Troyes engraver Philippe Thomassin, where he perfected his practice with the burin, copying the works of Italian and Flemish masters. In this phase he was attracted by the works of Agostino Carracci. In 1612 he moved to Florence, remaining there for nine years
