Item description from seller

Album contenente 63 incisioni a puntasecca, ivi incluso il frontespizio figurato. Legatura settecentesca in piena pelle, con fregi in oro al dorso a cinque nervature. Tracce di tassello con titoli, abraso. Non è presente il foglio di guardia anteriore. Il frontespizio e le prime cinque incisioni presentano una ininfluente mancanza di 2-3 cm. al margine superiore. Fresca impressione. La sigla nel titolo D.D.D. sta per "Dat, Dicat, Dedicat". Ex libris E.M. Parker. Famosa raccolta di 62 incisioni all'acquaforte e puntasecca, realizzate presumibilmente tra il 1656 e il 1658 dal pittore, incisore e poeta Salvator Rosa (Napoli, 1615-1673), attivo a Napoli, Roma e Firenze, e dedicate all'amico Carlo De Rossi. Conosciute come "figurine", sono intriganti ritratti di soldati ed altri personaggi, da soli o in gruppo, raffigurati in vivide espressioni e pose plastiche, che furono ampio oggetto di imitazione. Ne furono stampate varie edizioni (almeno otto), per cui risulta difficile individuare l'esatta edizione. Le tavole del nostro esemplare non presentano il monogramma "SR", né sono numerate. Operetta di difficile reperibilità completa di tutte le tavole. > Sotheran, "The spirit and power that brathe through this interesting and valuable Series are immense, and the attitudes and expressions of the figures are marvellously varied and true to nature". Bartsch, XX, 25-86. Wallace, "The Etchings of Salvator Rosa", 12, "They were copied, imitated and forged much more often than his other prints, so often that it is almost impossible to keep track of all the later variations". Graesse, VI/I, 651. Lilly, "Bibliotheca Elegantissima et Selecta", 70. 300 gr.…
