| Description |
English: Giovanni Antonio Faldoni (Asolo 1689 – Rome 1770) was one of the most influential engravers of 18th century Florence . Using his open paged, borderless style, his work expands and becomes visually large; making the image the only thing of importance. Being influenced by the 17th Century French engraver Claude Mellan, Faldoni used a system of parallel lines of varying thickness to give the illusion of plasticity and contour, without the need of cross hatching to give depth. His work was typical of 18th century Neoclassicism and the fascination with all things Greek and Roman. |
