MARCO PITTERI (after Piazetta) Teste dei Dodici Apostoli.
Set of 12 engravings, mid-1700s. Each 434x335 mm; 17 1/8x13 1/4 inches, full margins. Superb impressions of these very scarce engravings.
In this series, the image of Paulus replaces that of Taddeo. Working closely with Piazetta's designs, Pitteri developed a unique style of engraving with a wide range of tones and textures that beautifully evoke the softness of drawing and painting. Rava 29-40.
