Folio Portraits of Artists, Puligo, Fiesole, Rossi, Gallo, Cosimo
By Giovanni Battista Falda
Located in Norwich, GB
Fine folio including early and finely executed portraits of Renaissance artists by Joachim von Sandrart.
Included are portraits of:
Mino da Fiesole;
Giuliano da Sangallo;
Domenico Puligo;
Andrea da Fiesole, and
Properzia de' Rossi.
The latter is of particular historical significance in that Properzia de' Rossi (c. 1490 Bologna – 1530 Bologna) was a ground-breaking female Italian Renaissance sculptor, the only woman to receive a biography in Vasari's Lives of the Artists. According to Vasari, she taught herself to carve by working with peach-stones. At the end of her life, she was sought out by the Pope Clement VII, who unfortunately found her dead.
Sometimes referred to as the “German Vasari,” Joachim von Sandrart, born in Frankfurt, trained first as a printmaker, notably in Nuremberg, and in Prague with Aegidius Sadeler. He then studied painting from 1625 on, originally in the studio of Gerrit van Honthorst...

By Antonio da Correggio, Giovanni Battista Vanni
Located in Cagliari, IT
A beautiful pair of burin engravings depicting "Saint Bernardo degli Uberti" and "Saint Hilary of Poitiers" two of the patron saints of the city included in the base of the cupola ( dome ) of Parma cathedral frescoed by Antonio Allegri known as Correggio (Correggio, August 1489-Correggio 5 March 1534) between 1524 and 1530. Admirable work by the great master in which his genius as a forerunner of the Baroque is fully seen.
In 1642 Giovanni Battista Vanni etched a series of fifteen plates from Correggio's frescoes.
Giovanni Battista Vanni was born in Pisa around 1599; he studied successively under Jacopo da Empoli, Aurelio Lomi, and Matteo Rosselli, and then became a disciple of Cristofano Allori. He is better known as an engraver than as a painter. From 1624 to 1632, he lived in Rome, then returning to Florence after visiting Venice.
