Painting Description
"Invenzioni Capric di Carceri all'Acqua Forte Datte in Luce da Giovani Buzard [Bouchard] in Roma Mercante al Corso" is a series of prints created by the renowned Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi. Known for his intricate and imaginative etchings of Rome and its antiquities, Piranesi ventured into the realm of the fantastical with this collection, which translates to "Imaginative Inventions of Prisons Etched in Strong Water Presented by Giovanni Bouchard in Rome, Merchant on the Corso."
First published in the mid-18th century, this work diverges from Piranesi's typical architectural studies, delving instead into capricci, or artistic representations that combine real and fantastical elements. The series, commonly referred to as "Carceri" (Prisons), consists of 16 prints that depict immense, labyrinthine prison interiors. These imaginary prisons are filled with massive, foreboding structures and intricate machinery, creating a sense of awe and claustrophobia.
The "Carceri" series is noted for its dramatic use of light and shadow, the complexity of its composition, and its visionary quality that seems to anticipate the Romanticism and Surrealism movements. The prints were initially issued in 1745 and later reworked and republished in 1761, showing Piranesi's evolving artistic vision. The series not only highlights Piranesi's mastery of etching and his imaginative prowess but also reflects his deep engagement with themes of antiquity, architecture, and fantasy.
The title's mention of "Giovani Buzard [Bouchard]" refers to Giovanni Bouchard, a French publisher in Rome who was instrumental in distributing Piranesi's works. The mention of "all'Acqua Forte" (in strong water) refers to the aquatint technique used in the etchings, a method involving acid to etch the design into a metal plate.
"Invenzioni Capric di Carceri" remains one of Piranesi's most celebrated works, admired for its artistic innovation and its enigmatic, almost haunting quality that challenges the viewer's perception of reality and space.
