1930s

“Sarcofago rappresentante la Favola d'Atteone” (Sarcophagus representing the Fable of Atteone) is a beautiful black and white burin and etching on paper, realized by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Leonetti, after Agostino Tofanelli (Lucca 1770 - Rome 1834), as the inscriptions on plates on lower margins report “Agostino Tofanelli delineò./ Gio. Batta Leonetti incise. Roma”. Image Dimensions: 33.8 x 47.7 cm This print is numbered on plate in Roman numerals on right margin: “Tom II. /Tav. II" and is a plate from the series "Illustrazioni de'Monumenti scelti Borghesiani già esistenti nella Villa sul Pincio (..) date ora per la prima volta in luce dal cav. Gio. Gherardo De Rossi e da Stefano Piale sotto la guida di Vincenzo Feoli", by Ennio Quirino Visconti, published by Stamperia de Romanis in Rome, 1821. The print shows a precious piece of the Borghese's collection, a wonderful antique sarcophagus with a very detailed scene representing the fable of Atteone. In excellent conditions with a usual yellowing of the paper at the edges, this wonderful burin has preserved still today his lifetime impression and a wide gradient of greys and blacks. Illustrazioni de' Monumenti scelti Borghesiani This collection in two volumes is a beautifully detailed catalog of classical sculptures collected by Prince Borghese (1730-1800) in his Villa on the Pincio. Ennio Quirino Visconti (1751 - 1818) wrote the texts that accompany the large branches depicting. To these writings, which were available by the son of the illustrious archaeologist, the publishers added only a few illustrations relating to some minor monument of which copper had already been engraved. The engraved title-plate are signed by draughtsmen like Agostino Tofanelli, Stefano Tofanelli, Bernardino Nocchi, Domenico de Angelis or Teodoro Matteini, and by engravers Pietro Fontana Veneto, P. Vitali, Pietro Bettelini, Giovanni Folo Veneto, Giovanni Brunetti da Ravenna, Giovanni Ottaviani, Francesco Cecchini, Gio. Batta. Leonetti, Girolamo Carattoni, Domenico Cunego, Luigi Cunego, Alessandro Mochetti, Luigi Pizzi, Angelo Campanella or Giacomo Bossi. The Volume I shows ancient full-length statues, of the Borghese warrior...
