Pietro da Cortona (born Pietro Berrettini) was an Italian painter and architect who became a key figure in the development of Roman Baroque architecture. Around 1618, when he was not twenty years old, he drew a series of highly studied anatomical figures that were not published until more than 70 years after his death. Gaetano Petrioli, a professor of medicine and surgeon to King Victor Amadeus II of Sardinia, added seven figures copied from Vesalius, Vesling, Casserio and others, as well as his own commentary, and published these in volume titled Tabluae anatomicae (1741). Observing the “The dramatic and elegant poses of the dissected figures,” Princeton University biographer Nicola Shilliam describes it as “one of the most artistic anatomical atlases ever produced.”
Product Information
Expect crisp detail and vivid color from our giclée process fine art prints. We use archival pigment inks on cotton fiber paper to achieve a wide color gamut, deep blacks and beautiful tonal transitions. Unlike posters, they will not fade or yellow, but maintain their original quality for as long as you own them.How to Frame
Historical artworks were produced in whatever shapes and sizes best suited the artists and their patrons, and these rarely correspond to the proportions of modern, mass-produced frames. Most reproductions sold on the web are cropped to an arbitrary standard, compromising the integrity of the original artwork. We solve this by using accent borders to make up any differences in proportion.Framing may be as simple as inserting the print into a standard size frame with the borders showing. In many cases, our customers choose to have them matted. Borders allow space for framers to mount the print while covering little, if any, of the artwork. Our images are sized to provide desirable mat widths in common frames.
Sizes 9” x 12”, 12” x 16”, and 16” x 20” are designed to be matted in larger frames, such as 11” x 14”, 16” x 20” and 20” x 24”, respectively. Larger prints may be matted in frames of equal size, the borders corresponding to the shape of the mat. Where the artwork is unusually square or narrow, other sizes may be preferred.
If our sizing does not meet your requirements, we provide customization free of charge. Please contact us to discuss the details.
