Ornati d'invenzione di Raffaele Sanzio di Urbino esistenti nel coro di S. Pietro in Perugia : in numero venti rami

Raphael, 1483-1520 · 1811 · In Roma : Presso Giovanni Scudellari · 19 pictures

This is a set of twenty engraved plates published in Rome in 1811 by Giovanni Scudellari, reproducing ornamental designs attributed to Raphael (1483-1520) that were carved in the choir of San Pietro in Perugia. The plates show tall, symmetrical panels of scrolls, foliage and figures, intended for craftsmen and decorators. A designer can take from them the strict vertical symmetry and the way acanthus scrolls, grotesque masks and putti are packed into framed panels.
