Territorio di Bergamo, in Magini Italia Atlas (1620)

Description: British Parliament 1925 Vintage Lithograph Vintage Historical Map Print Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Magini first conceived of and started work on his atlas in 1594 but experienced a number of issues with publishing his work. The first engraver employed by Magini was Arnoldo di Arnoldi, but di Arnoldi was quickly lured away by the better wages offered by Magini's rival, Matteo Flroimi, in Siena. His brother Jacobo replaced him, but then went to rejoin Arnoldo, only to find that his brother had already died. Jacobo returned to continue working for Magini, but then left for the Netherlands in 1603 when he became ill. Magini replaced the di Arnoldis with the extremely talented Benjamin Wright, who, despite his brilliance, was a difficult alcoholic. Magini had to pay for copper plates that Wright had pawned not once, but twice. Somehow, Wright managed to engrave the sixty-one plates as well as Magini's wall map of Italy, but not before Magini's death. The first edition of this work would appear in 1620 and would be published by Magini's son Fabio Maginiand printed by Sebastian Bonomi. The second edition was published in 1632, by Clemente Ferroni, while the third edition was published by Niccolò Tebaldini. --- The vintage 1965 print offered here depicts a map of ancient/antique origin NOTE: Any imperfections in the image on this print are those that appear in the original map(s).

Prior to this, virtually all prints (and engravings) were produced as illustrations to be included in a manuscript, book, newspaper, or pamphlet. Therefore, a vast majority of original prints have been over the years removed from these original sources. Prints are produced using many different techniques: relief printing (woodcut & wood engraving), intaglio printing (steel & copper plate engraving, drypoint, aquatint, etc), and planographic printing (lithography, serigraphy, inkjet, laser, etc.). While the commercial value of a print depends on such factors as age, rarity, and condition, the real value of a print is its tie to its history and/or its esthetic beauty.
