The Birth of the Virgin
Etching with touches of engraving, 303 x 408 mm., Bartsch XVI-377-5, Massari 97 iii/v (as Master GR), ex collection: G. Locarno (Lugt 1691). A very good, clear but slightly later impression, on watermarked laid paper, trimmed on or just outside the borderline; flattened central fold. The print in not in the British Museum collection which has the reverse version, B. 6. Lafrery’s name appears early on in the print’s history, but the G.R. Fo. is a later addition, making Massari’s attribution to such a monogramist rather odd. The print is quite rare. There is an early impression in Vienna and a later one in the Esterhazy collection in Budapest, similar to this one but paler. Locarno, from whose collection this impression derives, was a painter working in Milan in the 19th century, who possessed a large and varied collection of old master prints.
