Brinckmann, Philipp Hieronymus The Holy Family: Mary with the Child on Her Lap (Rest During the Flight into Egypt). Etching. 9.6 x 7.8 cm. Circa 1730. Nagler 5, Le Blanc 5. Philipp Hieronymus Brinckmann was a court painter at the Electoral Palatinate court in Mannheim. During his lifetime, Brinckmann was a sought-after painter, as evidenced by Goethe’s praise in “Truth and Poetry.” His body of printmaking is small and includes a series of sheets in the style of Rembrandt. A magnificent print in delicate tones, with a border around the strikingly rendered subject. Minor signs of wear; otherwise in perfect and impeccably beautiful condition. Accompanied by Jacob Petrus’s “The Annunciation” after Hans Rottenhammer. - 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.
