Andrea Schiavone (Andrea Meldola)
Andrea Schiavone, also known as Andrea Meldola, was a Renaissance printmaker whose etchings translate religious narrative into fluid, painterly line. His subjects center on biblical episodes, among them the Flight into Egypt and the Miraculous Draught of Fishes, carried entirely through etching. This archive gathers three of his sheets, all etchings, dated by the Met to 1548, with impressions up to that year reflecting later printings. Together they offer a compact view of his graphic work in that single technique.
