A beautiful set of etchings by the French engraver Gérard Audran 1640-1703 reproducing frescoes by Raphael printed from the original plates by the Louvre's chalcography workshop during the mid-nineteenth century.</p><p>In 1517 Agostino Chigi commissioned Raphael to decorate the ground floor loggia of the Villa Farnesina in Rome in which the artist had painted his 'Galatea' a few years before. The series of frescoes which Raphael produced traced the story of Cupid and Psyche a myth derived from the Golden Ass of Apuleius 2nd Century A.D. The present set of etchings first produced c.1662-1690 document each of the fourteen lunettes of the entrance loggia depicting various cupids accompanied by the animals and other assorted attributes representative of the deities who had paid homage to Love.</p><p>The Chalcographie du Louvre was established in 1797 with the purpose of collecting and preserving engraved copperplates as well as for establishing a workshop of skilled printers who would produce new impressions from the original plates on historic presses. Originally made up of the plates from Louis XIV's personal collection 'The King's Cabinet' the Calcography went on to acquire several thousand further plates and is still in operation today.

189745668London 1897. Very good collection folded edge worn one tear affecting small portion of text minor soiling a few sticker remnants. 9 pp. A rare archive of five letters to "yet another woman artist who needs our attention" Victorian artist Mary F. Raphael from renowned Victorian artists and illustrators Reginald Cleaver; George Percy Jacomb-Hood; Henrietta Rae Normand; Claude Hayes; and William Quiller Orchardson.<br /> <br /> Marianna Mary Florette Moses Raphael 1861-1942 studied art in her youth but did not pursue it professionally until her husband the wealthy Arthur Lewis Raphael died suddenly in 1891. Widowed at 30 Mary was left to care for their daughter Gladys and enrolled at Cooke's Studio on Fitzroy Street. Her talent was recognized shortly after her enrollment and her works including "The Wood Nymph" and "Britomart and Amoret" had appeared in galleries throughout the 1890s. Britomart clearly suggests desire between two women In the early 1900s Raphael continued to exhibit designed cover art for books became active in the suffrage movement and was a prolific short story writer. She was also an accomplished novelist publishing her first "Phoebe Maroon" in 1914 fannycornforth.blogspot./2021/02/mary-f-raphael-1861-1942. <br /> <br /> "Mary Raphael began her art studies at Cooke's studio in London and received instruction and encouragement from well-known artists including Simeon J. Solomon. She continued her studies in Pans and her work since shows her determination to strengthen her own style in her highly competent and original works. Her Wood Nymph an acclaimed Royal Academy exhibit in 1896 shows her talent in painting nude female figures as well as her real achievement in solving drawing and composition problems. She has shown equal virtuosity' in her portraits of women and children Her portrait of A. E. Woodley Mason will be featured as the frontispiece to his next book." Rinder Frank “Mary F. Raphael " Art Journal 1899: 257- 259. <br /> <br /> Most if not all of the letters are written during the 1890s early in Raphael's career and pertain both to social engagements and to professional matters. Contents include:<br /> <br /> 1. ALS. Reginald Cleaver. March 28th 1894. 22 Bolton Studios Redcliffe Road. S.W. 1 pp. Accepting an invitation to join Raphael on April 11th.

The distance from Chelsea to Regents Park must be my excuse for not having paid my respects to you yet. I thank you for the invitation but I never go to dances now." Jacomb-Hood 1857 -1929 was a painter and illustrator. He was a founding member of the New English Art Club and Society of Portrait Painters.

"As the hanging proceeds I will communicate with you about the portrait & if there should be space I will call you for it in addition to the other contribution if you will allow me to make this arrangement. I should not like to hang it badly but if we are crowded it might have to go higher than I should like to see it." Henrietta Rae Normand 1859-1928 was a painter skilled in classical and literary subjects. The exhibit to which Normand may be referring is the Jubilee of Queen Victoria an 1897 exhibition of work by female artists.<br /> <br /> 4. ALS. Claude Hayes. Nov. 17th.n.d. but ca. 1896.

Shall I see your large portrait you speak in the New or R.A. I wish could had the life of a painter pure & simple like you for instance for half my time is employed in catching trains for teaching purposes." Claude Hayes 1852-1922 was a Dublin-born portrait and landscape painter. He exhibited at the Royal Academy the New Watercolour Society the New Gallery and the Royal Institute for Painters in Watercolour.
