16th Century Antique Engraving by Sadeler Johann I "The beheading of St. Paul"

About the Item

Beautiful 16th century antique engraving with walnut briar frame. "The beheading of St. Paul" was engraved by Sadeler Johann I. Perfect conditions. The Sadelers were a family of Flemish artists, mainly reproduction engravers, active throughout Europe between the 16th and 17th centuries. The style of the family members is very similar and not always easily distinguishable, for three generations, moving from Holland to Italy, stopping in Germany and Prague, these engravers, publishers and print dealers have played a central role in the dissemination of images. From 1572 Jan/Johan worked in Antwerp, then the world center of printing. He also became a master of the Guild of St. Luke. With his younger brother Rafael the Elder he initially moved to Cologne but the turmoil of the Dutch revolt forced the artists of Antwerp to move, so the Sadelers arrived in Italy in 1593, in Venice where they opened a printing house.
