Painting Description
"Four Sybils After Guido Reni (Bartsch XII 87.2; 88.3-88.5)" is a notable series of engravings by the Italian printmaker Bartolommeo Coriolano, created in the 17th century. These works are based on original paintings by the renowned Baroque artist Guido Reni, who was celebrated for his graceful and idealized depictions of religious and mythological subjects. The series features four Sybils, who in classical mythology were prophetesses or oracles believed to possess the ability to foretell the future.
Bartolommeo Coriolano, active primarily in Bologna, was a prominent engraver of his time, known for his skill in translating the works of leading painters into prints. His collaboration with Guido Reni, one of the most influential painters of the Baroque period, highlights the synergy between painting and printmaking in disseminating artistic ideas and styles across Europe. Coriolano's engravings are characterized by their meticulous attention to detail and the delicate rendering of light and shadow, which effectively capture the ethereal quality of Reni's original compositions.
The Sybils depicted in this series are likely to be the Cumaean, Delphic, Erythraean, and Persian Sybils, each representing different prophetic traditions from the ancient world. These figures were often depicted in Renaissance and Baroque art as symbols of wisdom and foresight, bridging the pagan past with Christian themes. Coriolano's engravings would have served not only as devotional images but also as objects of aesthetic appreciation, reflecting the period's fascination with classical antiquity and its integration into contemporary religious art.
The cataloging of these works under Bartsch XII 87.2; 88.3-88.5 refers to their inclusion in Adam von Bartsch's comprehensive catalog of old master prints, which remains a crucial reference for art historians and collectors. This classification underscores the historical and artistic significance of Coriolano's engravings, situating them within the broader context of European printmaking traditions.
