About this Item

Bartolozzi developed his style to imitate the subtleties of renaissance and baroque chalk drawings and became deservedly famous for his stipple engraving. The portraits in this collection show how effective this technique was in reproducing with such incredible fidelity Holbein's original designs. Accompanied by a biographical tract, giving a very brief account of this nurse to Edward VI. Engraved by BARTOLOZZI, Francesco. Stipple engraving. Very good condition, despite three wormholes in top right corner of margin, not affecting image. Printed colour. Size: 25.5 x 37.5 cm. (10 x 15 inches). Seller Inventory # 54849
