Description

The portrait of Hayreddin Barbarossa, c. 1478 - 4 July 1546) “SOLTAN / CHARADI(N) / DITTO / BARBA/ROSSA / RE DALGE/RI” Circa 1520-30, but printed in the 19th cent.

Woodcut on paper, mm. 351 x 253, printed in the 19th cent. on early paper (with watermark similar to an half moon) from a block of the first half of 16th cent., probably then belonged to the Soliani family of printers in Modena (Italy), that had a collection of early blocks. In the lower right corner there is a monogram ‘LA’ lately cut on the block to forge its authorship, giving it to Luca Antonio degli Uberti ( fl. 1503-1557), see Clelia Alberici in ‘Achille Bertarelli, Stampe popolari italiane’, Milan 1974. Still, a very rare print, and in very good condition.
