description

Summary

Blad met negen voorstellingen van taferelen met mythologische figuren op antieke cameeën uit de Grimani collectie te Venetië. Linksboven nog drie voorstellingen van een geit, een zwijn en twee putti.

Printmaking in woodcut and engraving came to Northern Italy within a few decades of their invention north of the Alps. Engraving probably came first to Florence in the 1440s, the goldsmith Maso Finiguerra (1426–64) used the technique. Italian engraving caught the very early Renaissance, 1460–1490. Print copying was a widely accepted practice, as well as copying of paintings viewed as images in their own right.
