Venerunt in Jerusalem, ut sifterent eum Domino

In 1750 The Recueil d’estampes d’apres les plus celeres tableaux de la Galerie Royale de Drede
(The Dresden Gallery ) invited artists from all over Europe to engrave the masterworks from their vast and impressive collection. Volume One of fifty engravings were completed in 1753 and the second in 1757 ( Volume Two). These engravings allow the general public to have the opportunity to admire the great artists of the early 18th century in their own home. Fra Bartolemo was an Italian Renaissance painter of religious figures. He was noted for his drapery and use of light and dark as we can see in this beautiful strong impression. This print is in excellent condition.
