STRADAN (Johan). - Lot 86
STRADAN (Johan).
Sic Ferus exardet in circo taurus aperto; cum sua terribili little horned irritamina... S.l., Jan van der Straet, [1578]... Nice copperplate engraving (32 x 24 cm, with margins). Some dirt and defects... This engraving with the one we enclose: "Sardi Equites hostis Taurus sectantur agrestes. Cornibus injiciunt laqueos, & crura voluto" (capture of a bull with a lasso) represent the first bull fights published in the 16th century. They are engraved by J. Collaert and made by Philippe Galle . Extracted from the collection Venationes Ferarum, they are very rare. Cf. estampas taurinas, 1989, pp. 11-12 . Ex-Libris René Cluzel, engraved by
François Righi.
