Not necessary as some engravings are not signed, but Jonnard did contribute to the large folio 2 volume Dore Bible and Thornbury's translation of Fables of La Fontaine as well as Milton's Paradise Lost, but there was only one engraver for Dore's Don Quixote which was Pisan. Hope this helps

This copy doesn't say who the editor is, only the translator, Cary. I'm therefore assuming, having also done some research to back it up, that this isn't a copy edited by Vaughan. Does that necessarily mean there are no Jonnard engravings in this volume?
