Felix Funken was THE top FN engraver and in fact founded the FN engraving school, which turned out a dozen or so master engravers, several of whom were women. Gaston Vandermissen, Louis Vrancken, Andre Watrin, Gustav Mueller, Ambrose Gillet, Oliviere Paque, Mademoiselle Lea Van Lar, the Marechal family (3 men, 1 woman), Jean Diet, and my personal favorite, Marie Louise Magis, were some of the incredible talents he fostered and nurtured.
