GIOVANNI VOLPATO Bassano del Grappa, Italy (1735) / Rome, I

Etching and burin engraving on two plates. After drawings by Teseo, inspired by Raphael's designs for the Vatican rooms and the tapestries of the Sistine Chapel. It does not, therefore, correspond to a specific pilaster. A rare contemporary example in color, still with a clear chromatic freshness. Signed and dated in the plate: Ludovicus Teseo Taurin… delin.; Joannes Volpato sculp. Romae 1776. Measurements: Image: 108 x 47.4 cm; paper: 111 x 54.2 cm
