Copia, nello stesso verso, da un niello appartenuto alla collezione Durazzo oggi conservato a Parigi, Louvre, collection Rothschild. Nel nastro svolazzante l’iscrizione “SOL IN DEO SPERO”.L’iscrizione consente di identificare il soggetto come un’allegoria della Speranza. La rappresentazione della figura femminile e lo stile molto delicato possono confrontarsi con altri nielli comunemente attribuiti a a Francesco Francia (Hind, Nielli, n. 242 e n. 247). I nielli della collezione Durazzo vennero fatti riprodurre in incisioni proprio dal proprietario, tra fine XVIII e inizio XIX secolo, costituendo una serie che venne diffusa e collezionata dagli amatori. Bartsch descrive queste copie nel suo volume edito nel 1811, data che quindi costituisce il terminus ante quem per l'esecuzione. Copy, on the same verso, from a niello that belonged to the Durazzo collection, now in Paris, Louvre, Rothschild collection. Inscribed in the flattering banner “SOL IN DEO SPERO”.The inscription (Only in God I Hope) identifies the woman as an allegory of Hope. The feautures of the woman and the very delicate, but regular technique compare well with nielli usually attribued to Francesco Francia as: Hind, Nielli, n. 242 and n. 247. The nielli of the Durazzo collection were reproduced in prints by owner’s will, between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, in Venice - as also specified by Malaspina in his catalog of 1824 - constituting a series that was circulated and collected by the amateurs. Bartsch describes these niello prints in his volume published in 1811, a date that therefore constitutes the terminus ante quem for the execution.
Copia di un niello della ex collezione Durazzo, (n. 3860) L'immagine esiste anche in almeno altre tre varianti: un disegno lombardo ( ?) agli Uffizi ( inv . no . 209F), falsamente inscritto come un ritratto di Beatrice d'Este di Leonardo; un dipinto nel Metro politan Museum of Art con un monogramma di Dürer falsificato (il dipinto potrebbe essere esso stesso un falso) e la data 1506; e un'incisione precedentemente attribuita a Zoan Andrea ( vedi TIB 2509.026 ), apparentemente un artista fittizio ora identificato con Giovanni Antonio da Brescia ( TIB 2511 ) . Sebbene Dutuit e Blum abbiano chiamato l'opera veneziana, la composizione è chiaramente lombarda, e la stampa fu probabilmente prodotta a Milano alla fine del XV o all'inizio del XVI secolo. I nielli della collezione Durazzo vennero fatti riprodurre in incisioni dal proprietario, tra fine XVIII e inizio XIX secolo, a Venezia - come specificato anche dal Malaspina nel suo catalogo del 1824 - costituendo una serie che venne diffusa e collezionata dagli amatori.

Sul nastro, al contrario: VA˙INLA˙CA...NEVA Copia, nello stesso verso, di un niello della collezione Durazzo (n. 2834), di cui una impressione originale è ora a Parigi, Louvre, collezione Cabinet Rothschild. Questa stampa può essere approssimativamente assegnata all'Italia settentrionale, e in particolare a Bologna. Zanetti e Dutuit ritengono che il dialetto dell'iscrizione sia quello di Venezia e, di conseguenza, attribuiscono l'opera alla scuola veneziana. Le parole Va inla caneva sono probabilmente emiliane invece. Il soggetto è enigmatico.

On the scroll, in reverse: VA˙INLA˙CA…NEVA Copy, on the same verso, of a niello print formerly kept in the Durazzo collection (n. 2834), now in Paris, Louvre, Cabinet Rothschild collection. This print can be tentatively assigned to northern Italy, and specifically to Bologna. Zanetti and Dutuit believed the dialect of the inscription to be that of Venice and accordingly attributed the piece to the Venetian school. The words Va inla caneva are probably Emilian instead of, or in addition to, being Venetian. The subject is enigmatic. The nielli of the Durazzo collection were reproduced in engravings by the owner himself, between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, in Venice - as also specified by Malaspina in his catalog of 1824 - constituting a series that was circulated and collected by amateurs.

Copia di un niello già conservato nella collezione Durazzo (n. 2854), di cui una impressione originale è a Berlino, Staatliche Museen. Sui cartigli, in senso orario da sinistra, al contrario: REGNABO, REGNA, REGNATEM. Questo bel lavoro, delicatamente inciso, è caratteristico delle stampe a niello per le sue dimensioni ridotte, la sua forma circolare e la sua iscrizione al contrario, ma non è caratteristico per il suo sfondo bianco e non ombreggiato. Tecnicamente, sembra risalire alla fine del XV o all'inizio del XVI secolo. Il soggetto era comune in tutta l'arte europea dall'alto medioevo in poi ed è spesso accompagnato da varianti delle iscrizioni sopra citate, ciascuna associata a una figura diversa posta a intervalli regolari intorno alla ruota della fortuna. In questa immagine, la ruota è fatta girare da una corda, attaccata a una manovella nel centro e tirata da una mano che emerge dal cielo in alto a destra. La mano sembra emergere da, o passare attraverso, un'aureola inscritta con una croce. La mano, quindi, deve essere la mano di Dio, che determina il destino dell'uomo spingendo la Ruota della Fortuna. I nielli della collezione Durazzo vennero fatti riprodurre in incisioni dal proprietario, tra fine XVIII e inizio XIX secolo, a Venezia - come specificato anche dal Malaspina nel suo catalogo del 1824 - costituendo una serie che venne diffusa e collezionata dagli amatori. Bartsch descrive queste copie nel suo volume edito nel 1811, data che quindi costituisce il terminusine ante quem per l'esecuzione. Copy of a niello print formerly kept in the Durazzo collection (n. 2854), now in Berlin, Staatliche Museen. On the scrolls, clockwise from the left, in reverse: REGNABO, REGNA, REGNATEM. This fine, delicately engraved work is characteristic of niello prints in its diminutive size, its circular shape, and its inscription in reverse, but uncharacteristic in its white, unshaded background. Technically, it appears to date from the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century. The subject was common throughout European art from the high middle ages onward and is often accompanied by variants of the inscriptions quoted above, each one associated with a different figure placed at regular intervals around Fortune’s wheel. In this image, the wheel is turned by a rope, attached to a crank in the center and pulled by a hand emerging from the sky at the upper right. The hand appears to emerge from, or pass through, a halo inscribed with a cross. The hand, therefore, must be the hand of God, who determines man’s fate by propelling the Wheel of Fortune. The nielli of the Durazzo collection were reproduced in engravings by the owner himself, between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, in Venice - as also specified by Malaspina in his catalog of 1824 - constituting a series that was circulated and collected by amateurs. Bartsch describes these copies in his volume published in 1811, a date that therefore constitutes the terminus ante quem for the execution. For the attribution to Maso Finiguerra, disputed by some scholars, see the summary in Zucker in The Illustrated Bartch,1993. TIB 2401.011; Duchesne, pp. 259-60, n. 312; Zanetti, p. 107, n. 151
Copia di un niello della collezione Durazzo. Secondo Dutuit , il facsimile registrato da Bartsch , Duchesne , e Zanetti non corrisponde a nessuna delle impressioni su carta nella vendita Durazzo del 1872. Dutuit ha ipotizzato che abbiano visto un facsimile copiato da una placca d'argento descritta da Passavant (vol. 1, p. 272, n. 10; anche Dutuit, p. 46, n. 187). Questo medaglione ovale era il n. 2827 del catalogo della vendita Durazzo. Si suppone che il soggetto sia la Madonna col Bambino in trono affiancata da un vescovo santo (con una croce?) e un altro santo (un cardinale o un monaco che porta un libro?). I nielli della collezione Durazzo vennero fatti riprodurre in incisioni dal proprietario, tra fine XVIII e inizio XIX secolo, a Venezia - come specificato anche dal Malaspina nel suo catalogo del 1824 - costituendo una serie che venne diffusa e collezionata dagli amatori. Bartsch descrive queste copie nel suo volume edito nel 1811, data che quindi costituisce il termine ante quem per l'esecuzione. Copy of a niello print from the Durazzo Collection. According to Dutuit , the facsimile recorded by Bartsch , Duchesne , and Zanetti does not correspond with any of the paper impressions in the Durazzo sale of 1872. Dutuit speculated that they had seen a facsimile copied from a silver plaque described by Passavant ( vol . 1 , p . 272 , no . 10 ; also Dutuit , p . 46 , no . 187 ) . This oval medallion , measuring 52 x 39 mm , was no . 2827 in the Durazzo sale catalogue . Supposedly , the subject was the Madonna and Child enthroned and flanked by a bishop saint ( with a cross ? ) and another saint ( a cardinal or a monk carrying a book ? ) . Repository unknown . The nielli of the Durazzo collection were reproduced in engravings by the owner himself, between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, in Venice - as also specified by Malaspina in his catalog of 1824 - constituting a series that was circulated and collected by amateurs. Bartsch describes these copies in his volume published in 1811, a date that therefore constitutes the terminus ante quem for the execution.
