Anonymous, Italian, 16th to early 17th century

Anonymous, Italian, 16th to early 17th century, is represented here by a small group of engravings whose imagery belongs to the religious and mythological repertory of the Italian Renaissance. The sheets center on the Virgin reading with the infant Christ, cupids before a pillared facade, and Pallas Athena standing on a globe with spear and shield. This collection holds five works, all engravings, dated 1515–1520 with impressions up to that period.
