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.

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.

Mezzotinta and copper etching in warm sepia color.

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.

"Alaric in Rome"

Photogravure after the painting by Wilhelm von Lindenschmit (1829-1895).

London, ca. 1890

After having ransacked Constantinople, Corinth, Sparta an other places in Greece, Alaric, first king of the Visigoths (370-410), moved on to Rome battling down places he happened to pass. A wild, incredibly active life. Lindenschmit envisioned Alaric's entrance into Rome in the year 410. Although Rome was no longer the capital of the West Roman Empire, having lost out to Milan and then to Ravenna, the "eternal city" had begun to be the center of Christianity, the spiritual center of the Roman Empire. For Rome Alaric's sacking may well be seen as the beginning of the end of the glorious Roman Empire.

The School of Athens - Scuola di Atene - Die Schule der Philosophen

This was the second of a series of wall frescos, Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, more colloquially known simply as Raphael (1483-1520), painted in the library / study of Pope Julius II. called "Stanza della Segnatura". Raphael placed this wall fresco opposite "La Disputa". It is, without doubt, the most celebrated work by this famous artist. It represents the fictional gathering of the heads of Greek Philosophy. The most important philosophers are here depicted. Mixed in are some of the protagonists of Greek Philosophy in Renaissance times. (Wikipedia has a very detailed identification of the shown personalities. Please Google: The School of Athens).

Type of print: Copper etching

Color: Hand coloring heightened with eggwhite

Engraver: Giuseppe Mochetti

Painter: Raphael (1483-1520)

Lettering: Upper left and upper right: Raphael Santius Pinx - In Aedibus Vaticanis

Below image: Pio Septimo Pontifici Opt. Maximo. Haeredes Franzetti D.D.D.

The series of copper etchings was commissioned by Pope Pius VII (1742-1823)

Published: Rome, ca. 1820

"Scuola di Atene" is one of three major fresco paintings in "Stanza della Segnatura". The other ones: "La Disputa" and "Parnassus".

Condition: The superb hand coloring is EXACTLY corresponding to the original fresco painting by Raphael. This distinguishes the engraving profoundly from modern hand coloring done by colorists often without regard to the original. The hand coloring moreover is extremely professionally executed. It is highlighted with eggwhite for it's stunning appearance. The image is flawless. Margins are wide on all sides. Only in margins are traces of age and use: some spotting and a faint stain along the lower margin edge. In general: The condition of this print may be considered as being Very Good!
