Antonio Maria Visentini
Antonio Maria Visentini is represented in this archive by a single sheet, an etching in its first state of three, dated 1735. The print belongs to the world of eighteenth-century Venetian portraiture, where engraved likenesses circulated alongside the city's celebrated view painting. Its subject, the paired portraits of Canaletto and Visentini, links the artist directly to the milieu of Venetian vedute and the printmakers who reproduced and promoted it. The collection thus holds one example of his etched work from that year, offering a compact glimpse of his activity as a printmaker rather than a broad survey.
