"Pasquino c. 1550" is an engraving by the French artist Nicolas Beatrizet, who was active during the Renaissance period. Beatrizet, born around 1515 and passing in 1565, was known for his detailed and precise engravings, which often depicted classical antiquities and Renaissance masterpieces. His works are characterized by their meticulous attention to detail and their ability to capture the essence of the original sculptures and artworks they represent.

The engraving "Pasquino c. 1550" is a notable example of Beatrizet's skill in translating three-dimensional sculptures into two-dimensional prints. The subject of this engraving is the famous "Pasquino" statue, one of the so-called "talking statues" of Rome. The original statue, a fragmentary Hellenistic sculpture, was discovered in the late 15th century and became well-known for its role in Roman culture as a medium for anonymous public commentary and satire. The statue's name, "Pasquino," is derived from a local tailor known for his sharp wit, and it became a tradition to attach satirical verses, known as "pasquinades," to the statue.

Beatrizet's engraving captures the weathered and fragmented nature of the Pasquino statue, emphasizing its historical and cultural significance. The artist's use of line and shading effectively conveys the texture and form of the ancient marble, bringing the statue to life on paper. This work not only serves as a valuable record of the statue's appearance in the mid-16th century but also reflects the Renaissance fascination with classical antiquity and the revival of ancient art forms.

"Pasquino c. 1550" is part of a broader body of work by Beatrizet that includes engravings of other notable sculptures and architectural landmarks. His contributions to the field of printmaking were significant, as they helped disseminate images of classical and Renaissance art to a wider audience, thereby influencing the artistic tastes and practices of his time. Today, Beatrizet's engravings are appreciated for their historical value and their technical excellence, offering insights into the art and culture of the Renaissance period.
