About the Item
The knight and his horse is an etching realized by Giambattista Tiepolo, in 1785.

Good impressions on paper, with wide margins.

It belongs to the edition of "Varii Capriccj" dedicated to Girolamo Manfrin. This is the only edition which was issued as a stand-alone publication. Following Rutgers, the realization of the series was realized between 1733 and 1735.
One of the most celebrated painters of eighteenth-century in Italy, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770) began making prints with his first collection of ten etchings, known as the Varj Capriccj: a very personal response to the production by Salvator Rosa and Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione . The prints don't have any straightforward or overt meanings, surely several prints evoke the ancient or Arcadian world, with classical urns, figures alongside tombstones, and fragments of obelisks; in one plate, the figure of
Death was reading a book, faced by a group of the living.
Tiepolo’s Vari Capricci received with great acclaim among collectors and connoisseurs, thanks to their technical virtuosity and to their enigmatic meanings, a mark of his brilliance and a successful and personal declension of the “capriccio”. In 1774 Pierre-Jean Mariette wrote about Tiepolo: “ Rich and fertile genius … it shines above all in his prints ’'.
