Jacopo Bernardi

Jacopo Bernardi is represented here by an engraving of the Virgin and Child, a devotional subject treated in the disciplined linear manner of nineteenth-century reproductive printmaking. The single sheet in this collection belongs to a group of impressions dated 1830, and its technique places the artist within the graphic traditions of that era rather than among painters. Visitors looking for a compact example of early nineteenth-century religious engraving will find the essential traits of the period concentrated in this one work.
