Bacchanal with Silenus (Brescia)
Mantegna’s revel re-cut for a sharper print.
What
The crowned Silenus carried by his companions, the same frieze as Mantegna’s, printed darker and crisper.
Why
Mantegna had Giovanni Antonio da Brescia re-engrave several of his plates; Cleveland holds this impression (1924.515), CC0.
Notice
Hang it beside Mantegna’s own and the lines here read deeper and blacker.
“A great image was worth cutting twice.”
