About this title

Synopsis

Rare masterworks of printmaking from Marcantonio and his circle

This catalog presents a splendid series of engravings attributed to Marcantonio and his school, described in Bartsch’s Peintre Graveur. It features many unique and rare pieces, including undescribed variations and pieces long valued for quality and historical interest. The collection draws from major holdings and recognizes both celebrated subjects and lesser-known works.

Organized by subject and master, the volume offers Old Testament, New Testament, saints, mythological, historical, and fancy subjects. Many prints are noted as especially fine, with examples described as before retouch, before inscriptions, or in states rare to find today. The entries highlight prints with margins, proofs, and distinctive monograms, reflecting a broad spectrum of early etching and engraving practice.

Wide range of genres: sacred, mythological, historical, and miscellaneous subjects
Emphasis on rare and unique pieces, including undescribed variations
References to states, margins, and provenance from major collections
Attention to the Bartsch cataloguing context and the period’s workshop practices

Ideal for serious readers of old master prints, Bartsch enthusiasts, and collectors seeking richly detailed catalogue entries.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
