Descriptive Note
|
Text: The subject of this print comes
from Ovid's Metamorphoses, the musical competition between
Pan and Apollo. The engraving is after a lost painting
by Primaticcio in the vault of the fourth bay of the
Galerie d'Ulysse at Fontainebleau. It is one of four
prints based on compositions surrounding a central image
of Venus and the three fates. Our print is the 5th sate
of 5. Antonio Lafreri acquired the plate at some point
in the 16th century and republished the print. His name
appears in the 4th state, but then disappears in the
5th, though sometimes it's just visible. The plate survives
in the Calcografia Nazionale, Rome.
