Rome. - "Guiochi Gladiatorrici nell' Anfiteatro" Mezzotinta and copper etching in warm sepia color. There is no credit for artist, nor name of publisher. We have checked the internet up and down, also the publicized inventory of the British Library, usually a sure source of knowledge. But we could not find a single hint for this beautiful print. So we have to stay vague - unless a reader of this can help. Any hint is very welcome. The print had been trimmed to its plate marks, then mounted on underlaying 18th century paper. The title (see above) was cut out and mounted in the center and below the print onto the support paper. Traces of age and use on print and support paper. The scene takes place in the Colosseum in Rome. It refers to the Roman Imperial period, when the public enjoyed dubious "games", such as slave gladiators fighting for life in the Colosseum with thousands of cheering people. We are looking through the main gate of the arena, where several gladiator fights had just finished. Outside the next fighters are getting ready to enter the arena, whiles others care for a wounded gladiator. Artistically well composed engraving, masterfully executed. 42 x 52 cm (ca. 16.5 x 20.5") Order Nr. ROMA252974 SOLD |

The title (see above) was cut out and mounted in the center and below the print onto the support paper. Traces of age and use on print and on support paper. Lively scene of a "New Year's Day" celebration in Rome during the Roman Empire. A holiday in ancient Rome brings out people to unite for the New Year's Day happenings. Our nowadays New Year's Day on January 1 actually began to be a holiday in the year 153 BC, when the Roman Imperial Council changed the beginning of each new year from March 1 to January 1. This became official only when Caesar confirmed the "Julian Calendar". Here we see the populous romanus enjoying the holiday densely crowded in front of this Roman classical architecture, which the artist created as a recosntruction. 41,5x 52 cm (ca. 16.3 x 20.5") $ 280 (Minus 40% discount = $ 168.00)) Order Nr.

Rome. - "Giuochi Equestri in Campo Marzio" Mezzotinta and copper etching in warm sepia color. There is no credit for artist, nor name of publisher. We have checked the internet up and down, also the publicized inventory of the British Library, usually a sure source of knowledge. But we could not find a single hint for this beautiful print.

The title (see above) was cut out and mounted in the center and below the print onto the support paper. Traces of age and use on print and on support paper. The artist, rendering a fine idea of reconstruction, gives us a feeling for the noble classical architecture on the Campo Marzio during the Roman Empire. Equestrial games belonged to the "bread and circuses" policy to keep The Roman people happy. Here we see man to man fights on horseback as well as lance throwing at targets, while a cheering crowd watches the goings on. 42 x 52 cm (ca. 16.5 x 20.5") $ 350,00 (Minus 40% discount = $ 210.00)) Order Nr.
