Description : Gruppo di quaranta ritratti di pittori

Hand-coloured engravings on paper. These are forty self-portraits of famous painters, taken from the work by Carlo Lasinio and published by Nicola Pagni and Guidobeppe Bardi in Florence between 1790 and 1796, the "Collection of 324 portraits of excellent artists". Each print consists of an illustrated part with the portrait and a superimposed scroll with a two-line inscription with the name of the painter and some personal details, followed by an order number. The whole is framed with ornamental motifs in the four corners. Lasinio made this collection by also recovering plates previously engraved by other authors and colouring them, printing them a second time with coloured inks. The engravings are presented in stylish frames.
