EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic "Portrait of Pietro Aretino" by Marcantonio Raimondi. Captured around 1517, this portrait immortalizes Pietro Aretino, a renowned Italian author, playwright, poet, and satirist who left an indelible mark on contemporary art and politics. Known for his invention of erotic literature, Aretino's influence extended far beyond his literary prowess. In this monochrome masterpiece, we see a man in his thirties with a distinguished beard and wearing traditional attire that reflects the fashion of the sixteenth century. His penetrating gaze looks away from us with an air of suspicion and distrust, adding intrigue to his persona. The hat perched atop his head adds a touch of elegance to his overall appearance. The artist expertly captures the essence of Aretino's profession as a writer through subtle details such as ink stains on his fingers or perhaps remnants from countless hours spent penning masterpieces. This engraving is part of "The Print-Collectors Handbook" by Alfred Whitman published in London in 1901. As we delve into history through this remarkable image, we are transported back to an era where literature held immense power over society. Through this print, we can appreciate not only Raimondi's artistic skill but also gain insight into the life and legacy of one of Italy's most influential figures - Pietro Aretino.
