About this sheet

Original antique etching/aquatint of Greco-Roman art. This print originates from ‘Il Costume Antico e Moderno (..)’ , by Giulio Ferrario, published in Milan in 21 volumes by Antonio Fortunato Stella in 1827. The 17 volumes of the first issue were published sequentially between c. 1815/1816 until 1826 after first being issued in 143 weekly installments. The work appeared in Italian and French. Smaller size editions with smaller much less elaborate plates were published in Florence (1823-38), Naples (1831-42) and even a 16mo. editon in Livorno (1830).
