Set of 4 Antique Piranesi Classical Inn Engraving Prints 1810
About the Item
A set of four Italian Piranesi framed and matted engravings of neoclassical urns. The engravings are deep plate engravings with crisp images, later framed in walnut frames under glass. the overall is 28 high, 22.5 wide.
Piranesi was born in Venice in 1720 and died in Rome in 1778. He was the son of a stone mason and was trained as an architect. After a slow start he eventually achieved great success as an architect, archaeologist, artist, designer, collector, and antiquities dealer. His mission was to glorify the architecture of ancient Rome through his engravings and etchings. His highly dramatized prints often depict imaginary interiors and frequently include figures in mysterious activities, who are dwarfed by the magnitude of their monumental surroundings.
