| Roman Trophies 1774 |
This group of etchings from the Rijksmuseum was created by Giandomenico Tiepolo (1727-1804) with only intermittent reliance on the work of his father Giambattista Tiepolo, and with greater reliance on personal inspiration (tempered by the boundaries of the contemporary art market). In the conventional devotional print immediately below the clumsy stiffness of the saint becomes an expressive asset set against the strangely compelling (yet also clumsy) postures of the airborne angels.
