70 Giovanni Francesco Barbieri (1591-1666), Guercino after, Francesco Bartolozzi (1727–1815) - Large Folio Print – Study of a Bearded Man – Engraving (1764)
This fine engraving by Francesco Bartolozzi features the expressive study of a bearded man rendered in delicate, flowing lines. The figure, turned in profile and dramatically lit, captures the dynamic gesture and textured quality typical of Bartolozzi’s portraiture and figural compositions. His mastery of engraving is evident in the subtle variation of tone and line, which gives the image a remarkable sense of depth and vitality. The work was published by Francesco Bartolozzi in 1764.
Francesco Bartolozzi was an acclaimed Italian engraver of the 18th century, celebrated for his technical precision and artistic refinement. Originally from Florence, he gained prominence in London where he became one of the most influential printmakers of his time, serving as Engraver to the King. Though often associated with stipple engraving, Bartolozzi also excelled in line work, as demonstrated in this earlier piece.
