Antique Neo-Classical Bartolozzi Print. 1907

This is an 18th century engraving and etching entitled "Parmigiani Amica" by Robert Strange after a painting by Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, better known as Parmigianino, who lived during the Renaissance period. It was published in London in 1774. As the inscription states, the painting was in the collection of the King of Naples at the time the engraving was made. The engraving depicts a half-length portrait of a young woman, known as Parmigiani's Amica (meaning "female friend" in Italian). She is depicted wearing a simple but elegant dress with a low-cut neckline, which reveals her delicate features and graceful neck. Her hair is arranged in a simple yet stylish manner. She is turning to the right to look lovingly at her infant, which she is holding with her right arm. She is touching the baby's mouth with her left hand. The background of the engraving is plain and unadorned, allowing the viewer to focus entirely on the subject of the portrait. The result is a beautiful and timeless image that captures the essence of Renaissance portraiture. The engraving is printed on watermarked paper. The sheet measures 16.25" high and 12' wide. The sheet is adhered to paper in its upper corners and it has been removed from the paper in its lower corners. There is some mild discoloration and some wrinkling in the margins, including the lower inscription area, and a small dark spot in the upper margin, which may represent a drop of ink occuring at the time of printing. These issues do not involve the image, which is in very good condition. The print is held by several museums and institutions, including: The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, The British Museum in London, The Royal Museums of the UK, The British National Trust...

Adolphe Crauk, born in Valenciennes on May 24, 1865 and died on December 13, 1945, was a French engraver and painter. A pupil of David Joseph Desvachez in Valenciennes and then in Paris of Alexandre Cabanel, Louis-Pierre Henriquel-Dupont, and Jules Jacquet, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1887 onward, receiving an honorable mention in 1893, a 3rd-class medal in 1896, a travel grant in 1897, and a 1st-class medal in 1905, the year he was selected as an hors-competition. He also received an honorable mention at the 1900 World's Fair. Aimé Nicolas Morot, born on June 16, 1850 in Nancy and died on August 12, 1913 in Dinard, was a French painter and sculptor. He studied at the Nancy School of Drawing and Painting under Claude-Émile Thiéry and Charles Sellier before becoming, through a competitive examination, a student of the painter Alexandre Cabanel at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris on May 31, 1869. He competed four times, unsuccessfully, for the Prix de Rome, before winning in 1873 with The Captivity of the Jews in Babylon. Upon marrying Suzanne Gérôme, he became the son-in-law of the painter Jean-Léon Gérôme; he was a friend of the painter and sculptor Édouard Paul Mérite. He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1880 to 1912, where he received a medal of honor for his first participation for The Good Samaritan. As an academic and professor at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts, a frequent exhibitor at the Salon des artistes français in Paris, and a member of the painting jury, Aimé Morot was an influential figure in Parisian art circles, one of the 18 most influential members of the Institut de France. The Société Française des Amis des Arts was founded in 1885 at the Palais de l'Industrie for the development of the arts, supported by numerous distinguished subscribers: Messrs. Gaston Doumergue (President of the French Republic), Baron Edmond de Rothschild, Count Greffulhe, the brothers Alfred, Jules, and Léon Bernheim, Louis Boucheron, Edgar Brandt, Emile Buland, Paul Chabas, Viscount Guy de Dampierre, Colonel Francis E.
