Painting Description
"Picturae Etruscorum in Vasculis nunc primum in unum collectae" is a seminal work by Giovanni Battista Passeri, published in the 18th century, which represents one of the earliest systematic studies of Etruscan vase painting. This comprehensive collection, whose title translates to "Paintings of the Etruscans on Vases now for the First Time Collected," was a significant contribution to the field of archaeology and art history, particularly in the study of ancient Etruscan culture.
The work is notable for its detailed illustrations and descriptions of Etruscan ceramic art, which were collected and studied by Passeri over many years. Passeri's interest in the Etruscan civilization, which predated Roman culture in Italy, led him to compile an extensive array of images and interpretations of the iconography found on Etruscan vases. His meticulous documentation of the decorative motifs and mythological scenes provided a valuable resource for scholars and contributed to a greater understanding of Etruscan society, religion, and artistic achievements.
Published in three volumes between 1767 and 1775, "Picturae Etruscorum" was a pioneering work in the field of Etruscology, the study of Etruscan history and culture. Passeri's collection was instrumental in disseminating knowledge about the Etruscans to a wider audience and laid the groundwork for future archaeological discoveries and research. The illustrations in the volumes were executed with a high degree of accuracy, making them a reliable reference for the study of Etruscan vase painting styles, techniques, and themes.
Giovanni Battista Passeri (1694–1780) was an Italian antiquarian and scholar whose work on the Etruscans was part of a broader 18th-century interest in classical antiquity. His dedication to the subject and the publication of "Picturae Etruscorum" earned him a place among the early figures in the academic study of the ancient Mediterranean world. The work remains a significant historical document and continues to be referenced by scholars in the fields of art history, archaeology, and classical studies.
