The Transfiguration (Bartsch XVIII, 4) is an exquisite engraving by the Italian artist Camillo Procaccini, a prominent figure of the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods. Born in 1561 in Bologna, Procaccini was part of a distinguished family of artists, including his father Ercole Procaccini the Elder and his brothers Giulio Cesare and Carlo Antonio. Camillo Procaccini's work is celebrated for its dynamic compositions, emotional intensity, and masterful use of chiaroscuro, all of which are evident in The Transfiguration.

The engraving depicts the biblical scene of the Transfiguration of Jesus, a pivotal event in the New Testament where Jesus is transfigured and becomes radiant upon a mountain, witnessed by his apostles Peter, James, and John. This moment is significant in Christian theology as it reveals Jesus' divine nature. Procaccini's interpretation of this scene captures the dramatic and spiritual essence of the event, showcasing his skill in rendering complex human emotions and divine presence.

In The Transfiguration, Procaccini employs a meticulous engraving technique that highlights his proficiency in handling light and shadow to create depth and volume. The composition is marked by a strong vertical axis, drawing the viewer's eye upward towards the figure of Christ, who is depicted in a state of divine glory. The apostles, positioned at the base of the composition, react with awe and reverence, their expressions and gestures conveying a range of emotions from fear to wonder.

Procaccini's work is influenced by the Mannerist style, characterized by its elongated figures and heightened emotionalism, yet it also anticipates the Baroque movement with its emphasis on dramatic intensity and movement. The Transfiguration stands as a testament to Procaccini's artistic prowess and his ability to convey profound spiritual themes through the medium of engraving.

This engraving is cataloged in Adam von Bartsch's comprehensive reference work on old master prints, "Le Peintre-Graveur," where it is listed as Bartsch XVIII, 4. The inclusion in this catalog underscores the significance of Procaccini's work within the broader context of European printmaking. The Transfiguration remains an important piece for the study of religious art and the development of engraving techniques during the transition from the Renaissance to the Baroque period.
