Veduta del porto di Taranto e del ponte che divide il mar piccolo dal grande

Grande incisione ad acquaforte (cm. 55 x 42) realizzata da Giorgio Hackert sul quadro del fratello Philipp: rappresenta il porto di Taranto. Gli Hackert lavorarono molto in Italia e all’epoca di quest’incisione, probabilmente non di molto posteriore al 1789, data del quadro, erano pittore e incisore di corte presso Ferdinando IV. Il quadro è nel museo della Reggia di Caserta. Negli ultimi anni del secolo sono numerosi i porti italiani ritratti da Philipp: la didascalia recita “Preso dal quadro originale che fu parte della collezione dei porti delle due Sicilie ordinata da S.M. il Re. Ottime condizioni, molto raro. A big etching engraved by Georg Hackert on a painting of his brother Philipp: the subject is Taranto’s port. Hackert brothers worked in Italy for a long time, and at this etching time, around 1789 (it’s the painting year), they were painter and engraver of the Ferdinand’s Court, in Caserta (where the painting is still in the collection). Many Italian ports were painted by Philipp in the late XVIII, when the king asked him to do a recognition (and a series of paintings) of southern Italy coast. Very good conditions, much rare.
