MORIN, Jean [1600-1650] after Anthony Van DYCK [1599-1641].. Portrait of Italian Cardinal, statesman and historian Guido Bentivoglio [1579-1644].
etching & engraving. 289 x 233 mm. (image). signed in the plate. A good dark impression on laid paper, trimmed to just outside image. "Jean Morin is another engraver of the earlier part of the seventeenth century in France, who fills a distinct and distinguished place in our history...he constantly combines engraving with etched dot and line, and achieves thereby a subtlety of tone of which the Bentivoglio after Van Dyck is a brilliant example." (Hind, A History of Engraving and Etching, p. 144)
