Giovanni Bellini Pittore.
Gio. Do. Campiglia del. P. Ant. Pazzi sc.
[n.d., c.1766.]
Fine engraving. 270 x 185mm (10½ x 7¼"), with large margins.
A half-length self-portrait of Giovanni Bellini (c.1430-1516), Venetian painter of the Renaissance. This portrait was part of A. F. Gori's monumental 'Museum Florentium', which set out to engrave all the portraits of painters, architects, sculptors and patrons of the arts in the major galleries of Florence. This vast undertaking was issued in parts, taking over thirty years (1731-1766) to complete. In this case, the intermediate artist was Giovanni Domenico Campiglia (1692-1768) and the engraver Pietro Antonio Pazzi (c. 1706 - after 1766).
