The composition is based on a design by the American-born British painter Benjamin West, who served as the second president of the Royal Academy of Arts. The work depicts a central female figure, representing Peace, seated amidst a group of putti who are engaged in various artistic and scholarly pursuits. One putto holds a tablet inscribed with the word 'Italy', while another writes upon a scroll. To the left, a lion rests near the shore, where ships are visible in the distance, suggesting the prosperity and security that peace provides for maritime trade and cultural exchange. A bust, crowned with laurel, appears in the upper right, further reinforcing the classical themes of the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBartolozzi was a master of the stipple engraving technique, though this work demonstrates his command of traditional line engraving and etching. The fine, controlled lines define the soft drapery of the central figure and the atmospheric clouds that surround the figures. The print reflects the aesthetic values of the late eighteenth century, where classical iconography was frequently employed to convey moral and political messages. The collaboration between West and Bartolozzi was common during this period, as the Royal Academy sought to promote high-quality printmaking as a means of disseminating fine art to a wider audience. This piece offers a clear example of the Neoclassical interest in allegory, order, and the idealised representation of human virtues. It remains a representative specimen of the print culture that flourished in London during the late Georgian era, demonstrating the technical precision required for such complex, multi-figure compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ruines-dune-terrasse-du-temple-de-venus-erycine-louis-ducros\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRuines d'une Terrasse du Temple de Venus Erycine - Louis Ducros — Louis Ducros\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/limodorum-purpureum-pierre-joseph-redoute\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLimodorum purpureum - Pierre-Joseph Redouté — Pierre-Joseph Redouté\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Francesco Bartolozzi","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443150819663,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443161370959,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443161403727,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443161436495,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443161469263,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443161502031,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443161534799,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443161567567,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443161600335,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443161633103,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443161665871,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443161698639,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Pax-Artium-Nutrix_Poster_CompositorV1_1786218943481.jpg?v=1786406629"},{"product_id":"bacchanale-with-a-herm-francesco-bartolozzi","title":"Bacchanale with a Herm - Francesco Bartolozzi","description":"\u003cp\u003eA fine etching by Francesco Bartolozzi depicting a classical mythological scene with figures and a herm, rendered in a delicate, sketch-like style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis etching by Francesco Bartolozzi captures a classical scene, depicting figures gathered around a herm, a pillar-like statue often associated with the god Hermes or Dionysus. The composition draws upon the aesthetic traditions of the eighteenth century, reflecting the period's fascination with antiquity and the pastoral ideal. Bartolozzi, a master of the stipple and etching techniques, employs a delicate line quality that mimics the fluidity of a preparatory drawing or sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene features a group of figures, including a woman mounted on a horse, accompanied by children and livestock. To the left, figures interact with the herm, which is positioned beneath a tree. The background remains sparse, allowing the focus to rest on the interaction between the human subjects and the classical monument. The use of a single-colour ink, typical of the period's printmaking, provides a sense of unity and focus on the draughtsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBartolozzi was highly regarded for his ability to translate the works of other masters into print, yet this piece demonstrates his own command of classical iconography.

Dated 1775, the work was produced as a ticket or invitation for a masquerade event, a popular form of social entertainment in eighteenth-century London. The central figure is a blindfolded Cupid, rendered with the soft, modulated tones characteristic of Bartolozzi's stipple technique. He holds a bow and a small banner depicting a female figure, while two doves nestle at his feet. The Latin inscription, Muto, non Ciecho, translates to 'Mute, not blind', a playful subversion of the traditional iconography of Cupid, who is typically depicted as blind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBartolozzi settled in London in 1764 and became a founding member of the Royal Academy of Arts. His collaboration with Cipriani was highly productive, resulting in numerous prints that captured the refined, decorative aesthetic of the period. The composition is contained within an oval frame, surrounded by a ribbon banner bearing the event details. The precision of the line work and the delicate shading demonstrate the technical mastery that made Bartolozzi one of the most sought-after engravers of his time.

The work is based on a portrait by the American-born painter John Singleton Copley.

Bartolozzi, who moved to London in 1764, became a founding member of the Royal Academy and gained recognition for his technical precision in stipple and line engraving. His ability to translate the dramatic chiaroscuro and emotional weight of Reni's original Baroque composition into the medium of printmaking is evident here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene depicts the biblical narrative of the Massacre of the Innocents. Reni's original composition, noted for its balanced yet chaotic arrangement of figures, is captured with meticulous attention to the musculature of the soldiers and the desperate expressions of the mothers. Bartolozzi employs a sophisticated system of cross-hatching to render the depth of the architectural background and the soft, ethereal quality of the putti hovering above. The contrast between the violent struggle in the foreground and the serene, divine presence of the angels provides a visual tension characteristic of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBartolozzi's work was highly sought after in the eighteenth century, as it allowed collectors to own high-quality interpretations of major European paintings.

The clarity of the line work, particularly in the drapery and the anatomical details, reflects the high standards of the Royal Academy engravers during this era.

Published in 1787, the print captures a young woman in profile, holding a basket of oranges and a playbill for the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. The playbill specifically mentions the production of Isabella, a popular drama of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBartolozzi was a master of the stipple technique, a method that uses dots rather than lines to create tonal gradations. This approach allows for a soft, painterly quality that mimics the appearance of chalk drawings. The subject is depicted with a gentle expression, her attire reflecting the fashions of late eighteenth-century London. The oval format, common in prints of this era, focuses the viewer's attention on the figure, while the sepia-toned ink provides a warm, monochromatic aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHistorically, the image reflects the intersection of street life and theatrical culture in Georgian London.

By combining this social archetype with the specific reference to a Drury Lane production, the print documents the atmosphere of the London stage. Bartolozzi’s technical precision in rendering the textures of the basket, the fabric of the woman's cap, and the paper of the playbill demonstrates his command of the medium.

In the foreground, two figures stand near the water, their presence adding a narrative element to the otherwise quiet, pastoral setting.

Bartolozzi, an Italian engraver who spent much of his career in London, was highly regarded for his technical precision and his ability to replicate the fluidity of chalk drawings through the medium of stipple and line etching. In this composition, two figures are engaged in a performance: a man singing while holding a sheet of music, and his companion providing accompaniment on a lute or guitar. The artist employs a light, calligraphic line to define the contours of the figures and their period-appropriate attire, including the feathered hat worn by the singer and the soft cap of the musician. The background remains largely unadorned, which directs the viewer's attention to the interaction between the two men and the physical act of music-making. The presence of an inkwell and quill on the table suggests a setting of study or composition, adding a layer of narrative to the scene. Bartolozzi's work often reflects the aesthetic preferences of the period, which favoured clear, balanced compositions and a focus on human activity. The print demonstrates his command of light and shadow, achieved through varied hatching techniques rather than heavy tonal blocks. This piece is a representative example of the genre prints that were popular among collectors in the late eighteenth century, valued for their decorative quality and their depiction of refined pastimes. The sepia tone of the ink enhances the classical character of the work, providing a warm, consistent appearance that complements the historical subject matter.

The monochromatic palette, typical of such engravings, adds to the formal and historical character of the piece, making it a representative example of late eighteenth-century printmaking techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/monument-voor-herman-boerhaave-abraham-delfos\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMonument voor Herman Boerhaave - Abraham Delfos — Abraham Delfos\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-misers-richard-earlom\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Misers - Richard Earlom — Richard Earlom\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Francesco Bartolozzi","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443350442319,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443353358671,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443353391439,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443353424207,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443353456975,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443353489743,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443353522511,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443353555279,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443353588047,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443353620815,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443353653583,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443353686351,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Napoleon-Bonaparte_Poster_CompositorV1_1786227170028.jpg?v=1786411454"},{"product_id":"dido-and-aeneas-francesco-bartolozzi","title":"Dido and Aeneas - Francesco Bartolozzi","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed 1787 engraving by Francesco Bartolozzi depicting the classical figures of Dido and Aeneas within a picturesque, atmospheric setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis print, published in 1787, depicts the classical narrative of Dido and Aeneas. Francesco Bartolozzi, a Florentine engraver who spent much of his career in London, collaborated with the painter William Woollett to produce this work. The composition draws upon the aesthetic conventions of the eighteenth-century picturesque, where human figures are situated within a grand, atmospheric environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the foreground, the figures of Dido and Aeneas are positioned beneath the heavy canopy of an ancient tree. Their forms are rendered with the precision characteristic of Bartolozzi, who was a master of the stipple and line engraving techniques. The background recedes into a distant view of a classical city, framed by rolling hills and a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. The contrast between the dark, textured foliage and the lighter, expansive horizon creates a sense of depth and scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work reflects the period's fascination with Virgil's Aeneid, a common subject for artists and printmakers of the era.

The inclusion of the royal crest at the base indicates the prestige associated with such publications during the late Georgian period. The print serves as an example of the technical proficiency achieved by engravers in the eighteenth century, who were able to translate the tonal qualities of oil paintings into the monochromatic medium of ink on paper.

The scene is populated by putti, or loves, who assist in the ceremonial act, reinforcing the theme of artistic veneration.
