Please allow this page to fully load BEFORE clicking on Pictures for super size Images Copperplate Engravings after the Old Masters engraved by Bernard Picart and other 17th/18th century engravers including Publius Vergilius Maro's AENEID ROMES' EPIC POEM These Prints are 300 year old Copperplate Engravings printed on laid paper with chain lines approx.1.5 inch apart and engraved by various Old Master Engravers during the late 1690s and published circa 1702 they are wonderful examples of the 17th century book illustrater's art.The texture and "black and white" nature of the engravings are excellent, generally of the finest quality they measure approx 12 x 8 ins and are generally in very good to excellent condition. Publius Vergilius Maro (also known by the Anglicised forms of his name as Virgil or Vergil) (October 15, 70 BCE – September 21, 19 BCE) was a classical Roman poet, best known for three major works—the Bucolics (or Eclogues), the Georgics and the Aeneid—although several minor poems are also attributed to him. The son of a farmer, Virgil came to be regarded as one of Rome's greatest poets; his Aeneid is Rome's national epic. Johannes Kip (1653 - 1722) was a Dutch draughtsman, engraver and print dealer who was briefly a pupil of Bastiaen Stopendaal (1636-1707), 1668 – 1670, before setting up on his own; his earliest dated engravings are from 1672. After producing works for the court of William of Orange in Amsterdam, Kip followed William and Mary to London and settled in St. John's Street Westminster, where he conducted a thriving printselling business. He also worked for various London publishers producing engravings after such artists as Francis Barlow (c. 1626-1704) and Caius Gabriel Cibber (1630-1700), largely for book illustrations. |

master50 MELLAN, CLAUDE (23 May 1598 – 9 March 1688) was a French engraver and painter. Mellan was born in Abbeville. Among the leading engravers of his time, he is best known for his numerous portraits as well as for his engraving technique of using parallel lines of varying thickness, rather than the more traditional technique of using crossing lines of equal thickness. He lived in Rome from 1624 until 1636. He died in Paris. This engraving of the Madonna and child is thought to have been engraved between 1639-1659 and is in excellent condition, see large scan.
