Johann Friedrich Bause
Johann Friedrich Bause is represented here by a single engraving, the first state of two, after a design titled Cupid feeling the point of an arrow. The sheet belongs to the final decade of the eighteenth century, with impressions up to 1790 documented by the Met. Bause worked in the engraving tradition of his era, rendering delicate mythological subjects through precise linework. This collection accordingly offers one example of his printmaking from that late period.
