Fortitudo.
[Jacob Gole?]
[n.d., c.1700.]
Mezzotint. 260 x 190mm (10¼ x 7½"), with very large margins on 3 sides. Trimmed to plate on right, toning in top margin, old ink number bottom right of plate. Stain top left & right.
An opulently-dressed woman representing 'Courage', with high headress, seated on a fallen column, armour and a trumpet at her feet. Through a window is a triumphal columan and a palace. The blackness of the background mezzotint suggests it has been reworked.
[Ref: 60180] £220.00
