ENGLISH ITALIAN COLOR ENGRAVINGS BY ANGELICA KAUFFMAN
Angelica Maria Anna Kauffmann, English, Italian, Swiss, 1741 to 1807, a pair of color engravings on paper depicting Neoclassical scenes with cherubs in the gardens. Each is signed in the plate, lower left. Engraved by Pietro Bettelini, Italian, Swiss, 1763 to 1829. Inscribed in the plate, lower right. Framed. Angelica Kauffmann is known for History and portrait painting. Born in Switzerland, Angelica Kauffmann became one of the most successful artists of late 18th Century England and Italy, especially noted for history painting and portraiture. In fact, she was the only artist who declined the invitation of Catherine the Great to come to Saint Petersburg to develop the Hermitage collection, the reason being that Kauffmann was too busy with commissions. Historically her accomplishments are quite amazing because she lived at a time when women were not allowed access to professional male models. A testimony to the high regard in which she was held by her contemporaries is that Charles Willson Peale, one of America's most famous artists, named one of his daughters Angelica Kauffman Peale. Antique European Graphic Art Prints and Collectibles.
