Description

The framed engraving entitled "Aurora and Cephalus" depicts the abduction of Prince Cephalus by Aurora, who has fallen madly in love with him. This work was created by Annibale Carracci and illustrates a scene from the great fresco on the ceiling of the Palazzo Farnese in Rome. The fresco was inspired by the love affairs of the mythological gods and Ovid's "Metamorphoses".

Mentions: "Annibale Carracci in" (Bologna, 1557 - Parma, 1602), "C Cesio delet sculp" (Androco, 1626 - Rieti, 1686), engraver and "Fran cus Collignon formis Cumpriut s pontificis" (Nancy, circa 1609 -Rome, January 18, 1687), French engraver, print merchant and publisher.

Annibale Carracci was an Italian painter and engraver, known for co-founding the Carracci school with his brother Agostino and their cousin Ludovico. Their studio in Bologna played a crucial role in the transition from Mannerism to Baroque, influencing many artists of their time. The Palazzo Farnese in Rome is one of his most famous works, where he decorated the ceiling with mythological scenes.

The print is in generally good condition, although it shows traces of folding and a stain on the marie-louise.
