A large and attractive engraving of Pope Pius X (Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto) Circa 1903. It is signed to the engraving "a monsieur Ch Wittmann, cordialement E Burney." To the base of the sheet, and in the same (or very similar) hand is written "gravée par Burnay, aprés C Gaillard." This is problematic. We can find no copies of th…is engraving online, but Burney and Gaillard often worked together, and Gaillard was Burney's teacher. BUT Gaillard died in 1887, years before the Elevation of Sarto to the Papacy. This work uses an identical frame / surround to Gaillard's portrait of Pius IX, which made his name. (obviouisly the name panel has been updated). We suspect that Burney is paying homage to his tutor, in the use and credit of the frame and style. The engraving is in very good condition, with a good, deep impression. There is a little foxing to the edges of the sheet, and a couple of very small tears to the page edge. Francois Eugéne Burney (1845-1907) was a French engraver and illustrator. Ferdinand Gaillard (1834-1887). Chrales Wittmann was a Parisian Intaglio printer. He often worked with Burney, and presumably was also the printer of this sheet, which Burney has signed for him. Engraved panel is 49cm x 34cm. The sheet is 62cm x 46cm. First Edition. .
