H. Carraccio pinx: [...] F. Piloty del [c.1820]
Lithograph, sheet 420 x 370mm (16½ x 14½").
Lithograph after a painting here attributed to Annibale or Agostino Carracci, from 'Königlich Baierischer Gemälde-Saal zu München und Schleissheim in Steindruck', a very large series of prints reproducing old master and modern drawings in Munich collections, published between 1816 and 1821. The lithographs were drawn by Ferdinand Piloty (as here) and his partner J.N. Strixner. Unlike its predecessor 'Les Ouevres Lithographiques' (1810-16), this series went beyond reproducing works of the German school to represent the entire painting collection in Munich. These prints were made while the technique of lithography was still in its infancy- colour lithograph was yet to be introduced and so the printmakers used one or two tint stones to add greater subtlety to the prints.
For other plates from the series see refs. 43534, 43535 etc.

A portrait of either of two brothers: Hans Sebald Lautensack (1524-c.1560), a painter and etcher; or Heinrich Lautensack (1522-1590), a painter, collector and goldsmith. This print was published in 'Les Oeuvres Lithographiques', a huge series of reproductive plates of paintings, by Johann Nepomuk Strixner (1782 - 1855) and Ferdinand Piloty (1786-1844). Their work did much to popularise lithography, as they showed the technique could achieve all the same effects as other engraving techniques.
