H: Roos pinx: A: Bartsch sc:
[n.d., c.1800]
Etching, platemark 250 x 315mm (9¾ x 12¼") Small repaired hole to left side, large margins.
Etching, probably after Johann Heinrich Roos (1631-85), from whose works Bartsch produced several prints. Adam Bartsch (1757-1821) was a Viennese librarian and amateur etcher, but is know chiefly remembered for his academic work. His 21 volume work 'Le Peintre-Graveur' (Vienna, 1803) remains an indispensible reference work for old master prints.
