Giuseppe Maria Crespi
Giuseppe Maria Crespi belongs to the Italian Baroque and is represented here by a single etching, a medium he used throughout his printmaking. The sheet in this archive centers on the figure of the favorite nanny, known as La balia favorita, and dates from 1685 according to the Met's records. That date reflects the period of the printing, so impressions up to that year may appear in the collection rather than only the original plate.
