Pierre Lacour (the younger)

[1] In 1814, upon his father's death, he took over as Curator of the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux and Professor at the local drawing school.

He and Jean-Baptiste Légé (1779-1846) opened a lithography studio in 1821 and, in 1823, he decided to give up painting in favor of engraving.

Thirty years later, during his retirement, he wrote a cultural study of Italy; complete with sketches he made during the trip.

In 1838, he resigned his official positions to open a private workshop, but continued to teach drawing at a small school in Bazas.

Before his death, he composed a memoir, Notes et souvenirs d'un octogénaire, with reflections on the life of his father and well-known contemporary artists.
