Nouvelles de l'estampe (in French : "News about prints") is a scholarly journal on prints (etchings, engravings, lithography, etc.). It is published by the Comité national de la gravure française and its office is at the prints department of the Bibliothèque nationale de France, which sponsors the journal.
