PRINTS FOR SALE - Palladio
We are pleased to offer a group of prints showing buildings by Andrea Palladio, the great Italian architect of the C16.
THESE PRINTS ARE ALL NOW SOLD - DETAILS FOR INFORMATION ONLY
These are very attractive and detailed prints from an edition of Bertotti Scamozzi’s Il Forestiere Istruito . . .di Architettura . . . Citta’ di Vicenza, a guidebook principally describing the works of Palladio, first published in Vicenza in 1761. The plates may be from a later edition, but they show folding as per the first edition.
The plates were etched by the Italian engraver Cristoforo Dall’Acqua, active in the second half of the C18, and a contemporary of Piranesi.
A small inset photograph shows the building. These prints are all attractively mounted with a dark green slip, but may not be in conservation board mount.
