I am going off topic here, but do we really know where Robert de Visée is from? I recall finding an entry in a modern edition of Nicolas Blégny's Le livre commode (1692) about a certain Visée (spelt differently). He is said to be from one of the low countries, but I cannot remember which one. Of course, I could be totally wrong.
