No Binding. Condition: Very Good. John Howes (artist): Francesco Bartolozzi (engraver) (illustrator). 1st Edition. Size: Frame 26.5 x 24 cm, print inside mount 11 x 9.5 cm Condition: print and frame in excellent condition. This charming print, in a period oak bevelled frame, is a stipple engraving and etching made by Francesco Bartolozzi after the painter John Howes. It was published by John Matthews in 1791. The print is a colour print. The technique used for this type of printing involved inking the copper plate in different colours. It was a laborious process and such colour prints are much rarer, and more subtle in their tone, than monochrome prints with later hand colour. Francesco Bartolozzi came to England from Italy and established himself as the pre-eminent engraver of the late 18th century, becoming the first member of the Royal Academy who was not a painter. The speciality he is most associated with is stipple engraving, which uses dots rather than lines and is particularly good for depicting flesh tones. John Howes (1750-1833) was and English painter famed mainly for his miniatures.

Bartolozzi from the original Drawings of Guercino in the Collection of His Majesty" printed in London by the publisher Boydell around 1765 (Davoli 1995, p. 390). At least three editions of this highly prized edition are known: a first undated edition is printed on paper laid with sepia ink around 1765/66, a second undated edition is also printed with sepia ink but on unlaid paper datable to the very early nineteenth century and a third edition, dated 1835 is printed on paper not laid with black ink. This first volume consists of eighty-two prints all taken from drawings by Guercino: fifty-eight of these are by Bartolozzi (fifty-three have the signature, the others are attributed to him), six engravings are by Richard Dalton, George III's librarian, thirteen by James Basire and five by Giovanni Vitalba. Guercino's drawings relating to the edition, now partly considered to be of the school or later copies, are preserved in Windsor Castle where they had been since the eighteenth century (Mahon - Turner 1989).The prints of Guercino's drawings were engraved by Bartolozzi on behalf of Richard Dalton, librarian of the Crown, who also procured the engraver a two-year contract and the title of "King's Engraver".
