Vico, Enea The Three Graces. Copperplate engraving after Marcantonio Raimondi. 26.7 x 18.2 cm. 1542. B. XV, 291, 20. Mark: Handschuh. The composition of this copperplate engraving is based on a model by Marcantonio Raimondi, yet it exhibits distinct differences from it, evident in the rendering of the figures and, in particular, in the design of the background, which in Raimondi’s version is dominated by three large palm trees. As the respective captions make clear, both Vico and Raimondi, in turn, based their works on an ancient relief that was previously believed to be a work by the ancient sculptor Polykleitos. An excellent, rich-toned print with a wide margin. Bearing the address of Antonio Salamanca. Minor signs of age; otherwise, an exquisite copy. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalog. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalog.
