Johann Gottfried Bartsch
Johann Gottfried Bartsch belongs to the era of the late seventeenth century, when printmakers translated mythological subjects into the linear language of etching. His surviving sheets centre on classical narrative, most notably the hunt of Atalanta and Meleager, rendered with the fine, economical line that defines his manner. The archive holds a single etching from him, dated 1670, and impressions up to that year are what the collection documents.
