No Binding. Condizione: Good. Size: 226 x 191 mm. Condition: Print trimmed to image, clean with no tears creases or staining. The print is on fairly thin laid paper, which has a watermark of a symbol of letter within a shield. It probably dates to about 1700. It is a later printing from the second state of the engraved plate, originally published by Antonio Salamanca c1530-1560. This plate is one of a series of 32 which depicted the story of Cupid and Psyche as told by Apulieus. It depicts Psyche setting off in Charon's boat across the River Styx on her way to the Underworld, ignoring the old man at left who requests alms. The Italian verses accompanying the plate are taken from the translation of Apuleius' works published by Boiardo in 1516. Formerly thought to have been designed by Raphael, the Cupid and Psyche engravings are now reputed to be based on Raphael-inspired drawings, probably Italian. The Master of the Die has not been identified with certainty.…

No Binding. Condizione: Very Good. Size: All sheets measure 42.5 27.5 cm (17 x 11 inches), and the platemarks 233 x 206 mm ( 9 x 8 inches). Condition: All prints are excellent impressions, a few minor short tears and creases to some margins, some very minor spotting, none affecting the images themselves. 23 plates from a series of 30 numbered plates, all from the same volume with thread holes on the left hand short margin. The plates not present are 7, 8, 21, 23, 24, 25 and 26. The prints are from the second state edition of Antonio Salamanca, with his imprint, except that plate 1 has Salamanca's mark erased and instead is engraved "sup: lic:" . There appear to be no other differences between these prints and Salamanca's edition. The paper (for all the prints) has a watermark of P M with F below and a crown above which appears to be French paper and suggesting a printing date of 1680-1730. Plate 1 does not have the publisher's imprint of Matteo Gregorio Rossi (1638-1702), so this collection predates his, and this confirms an approximate date of 1680. The impressions are very good, which would also confirm this relatively early date. The first issue of these prints had 32 plates - it appears this printing only ever had 30, and plates 9 to 20 and 27 to 30 are numbered 10-21 and 28-31 in a later printing in the Royal Collection Trust. The prints depict episodes from Apuleius' Story of Cupid and Psyche, all of which were engraved by the Master of the Die with the exception of three by Agostino Veneziano. Formerly thought to have been designed by Raphael, the engravings are now reputed to be based on Raphael-inspired drawings, probably Italian. The Master of the Die has not been identified with certainty. The Italian verses accompanying the plates is taken from the translation of Apuleius' works published by Boiardo in 1516.…
