LUIGI RADOS (AFTER GASPARE GALLIARI)
Group of 5 aquatints with etching from Invenzioni Teatrali.

Each circa 1814. Each approximately 348x440 mm; 13 3/4x17 1/2 inches, small to narrow margins outside the border lines. Very good impressions of these extremely scarce prints.

Rados (1773-1840) was born in Parma and became an incredibly skilled aquatint printmaker, as evidenced by this group, from a series of 24 stage settings based on the works of the theatrical designer Galliari (1716-1818) who was active most of his career in Milan.
