The signature of the Artist, on the lower right. Angelo Rossini (1871–1939) was an Italian painter and engraver. Enrolled at the University of Rome, in the faculty of Architecture, Angelo Rossini abandoned his studies to devote himself to painting and engraving, following the example of his ancestor Luigi Rossini, who had been an architect and engraver. He lived in Germany, in Karlsruhe, where he absorbed the dry and precise sign of the German engravers. Returning to Rome in 1903, he moved in the orbit of the XXV of the Roman countryside, but he preferred the parks of the historic suburban villas, immersed in leafy woods. Particularly attracted by the reflections of light on the water, he traveled to Chioggia and Venice, to discover solitary lagoon subjects; then he went into small villages along the Ligurian and Neapolitan coasts. He engraved many night views, illuminated by the moon, with a wealth of strong chiaroscuro accents. Angelo Rossini was one of the 25 engravers of the GRIA association (Gruppo Romano Incisori Artisti), organized in 1921 by Federico Hermanin, who was based in via degli Astalli Palazzo Venezia and which included Italian and foreign engravers permanently residing in the capital. In Rome he was secretary of the Amateurs and Connoisseurs association of fine arts and was a member of the International Artistic Association.

"Skating on Ladies' Pond Central Park": Winslow Homer 19th C. Woodcut Engraving
By Winslow Homer
Located in Alamo, CA
This Winslow Homer woodcut engraving entitled "Skating on the Ladies' Skating-Pond in Central Park, New York", was published in Harper's Weekly in the January 28, 1860 edition. It depicts a large number of men, women and children skating on a recently opened pond in Central Park. At the time of publication of this engraving, Central Park was in the early stages of construction. This engraving documents the very early appearance of Frederick Law Olmstead and Calvert Vaux's masterpiece of landscape design. According to Olmsted, the park was "of great importance as the first real Park made in this century – a democratic development of the highest significance". The people of New York were very proud of the plans for their park. It was stated at the time: "Our Park, which is progressing very satisfactorily under the management of the Commissioners, will undoubtedly be, one of these days, one of the finest place of the kind in the world...Those who saw the Park before the engineers went to work on it are amazed at the beautiful sites which have been contrived with such unpromising materials; all fair persons believe that the enterprise is managed with honesty and good taste." Skating was rapidly rising in national popularity in part due to the opening of Central Park’s lake to skaters on a Sunday in December 1858 with 300 participants. The following Sunday it attracted ten thousand skaters. By Christmas Day, a reported 50,000 people came to the park, most of them to skate. There were rules governing who could use the skating pond. “The Ladies’ Pond...
