Painting Description
"Cinque Calcografie Tratte Dal Ciclo Diviso In Sette Parti 'Die Geschichte Von Ammon Und Tamar'" is a series of five engravings by the German Renaissance artist Heinrich Aldegrever, which forms part of a larger cycle of seven works depicting the biblical story of Amnon and Tamar. Aldegrever, born Heinrich Trippenmeker (1502–circa 1561), was a contemporary of Albrecht Dürer and is known for his printmaking, particularly his engravings and etchings that reflect the influence of the Italian Renaissance alongside Northern Renaissance traits.
The story of Amnon and Tamar, recounted in the Second Book of Samuel, is a dramatic and tragic tale of lust, deceit, and revenge within the royal house of King David. Aldegrever's cycle captures the narrative's key moments with a meticulous attention to detail and a dramatic flair characteristic of his work. The engravings are notable for their intricate line work and the expressive portrayal of the figures, which convey the emotional intensity of the story.
The "Cinque Calcografie" (Five Engravings) are particularly significant as they showcase Aldegrever's skill in the medium of printmaking and his ability to translate a complex narrative into a series of images. Each engraving is a work of art in its own right, but together they form a cohesive visual account of the biblical episode. The series is an important example of Northern Renaissance art and contributes to our understanding of the period's approach to storytelling, as well as the dissemination of biblical themes through the medium of prints.
Aldegrever's works are held in high esteem by art historians and collectors, and the "Cinque Calcografie" are among the pieces that illustrate why he is considered one of the "Little Masters" of German printmaking—a group of artists known for their small, finely detailed engravings. The series not only reflects Aldegrever's artistic prowess but also provides insight into the religious and cultural milieu of 16th-century Europe, where such images played a key role in both devotional practices and the spread of artistic ideas.
