Francesco Zuccarelli studiò a Firenze nella bottega di Paolo Anesi ed in seguito si trasferì a Roma presso i pittori Giovanni Maria Morandi e Pietro Nelli. Fu inizialmente un pittore di soggetti storici ispirato dalla conoscenza della pittura di Claude Lorrain, pittore francese del Seicento vissuto a Roma che fu maestro di questo genere insieme al connazionale, ma più scenografico, Nicolas Poussin. Trasferitosi a Venezia, Zuccarelli, si rivolse alla pittura di soggetto arcadico, che coltivò in concorrenza col bellunese Giuseppe Zais. Come successe ad altri pittori veneti suoi contemporanei, quali Canaletto e Bernardo Bellotto, la sua pittura fu molto apprezzata all'estero dove fu chiamato a dipingere per ricchi mecenati come ad esempio il celebre Console Joseph Smith. Zuccarelli lavorò molto in Inghilterra dove influenzò importanti pittori locali in maniera particolare il suo stile fu ripreso dal grande Joshua Reynolds. Dopo cinque anni di permanenza a Londra, Zuccarelli ritornò a Venezia. Di nuovo a Londra nel 1765, fu uno dei fondatori della Royal Academy of Arts nel 1768. Etching, signed and dated lower margin: Fran Zuccherelli Pitilianen incid. Flo. 1728. After a drawing by Giovanni Manozzi. The print shows a standing female figure walking to the left holding a lamp, pointing with right hand. Good example, printed on contemporary laid paper, trimmed close to the marginal line, in perfect condition. Cut off the inscription in the lower margin. Francesco Zuccarelli studied in Florence in Paolo Anesi's workshop and later moved to Rome with the painters Giovanni Maria Morandi and Pietro Nelli. He was initially a painter of historical subjects inspired by his knowledge of the painting of Claude Lorrain, a 17th-century French painter who lived in Rome and who was a master of this genre together with his compatriot, but more scenic, Nicolas Poussin. After moving to Venice, Zuccarelli turned to painting Arcadian subjects, which he cultivated in competition with Giuseppe Zais from Belluno. As with other Venetian painters of his time, such as Canaletto and Bernardo Bellotto, his painting was much appreciated abroad where he was called to paint for wealthy patrons such as the famous Consul Joseph Smith. Zuccarelli worked extensively in England where he influenced important local painters, and in particular his style was taken up by the great Joshua Reynolds. After five years in London, Zuccarelli returned to Venice. Back in London in 1765, he was one of the founders of the Royal Academy of Arts in 1768.

Very Good Greek, Modern (post 1453) Contemporary fine leather bdg. Demy 8vo. (22 x 15 cm). In Greek. 1118 p., richly illustrated (b/w ills.). Period bindery label of E. Watson in London. Ex-library copy on fourth blank page. Otherwise a very good copy. First and extremely rare translation into Greek of Taxil's 'Myste`res de la Franc-Mac?onnerie'. Mysteries of Freemasonry. Marie Joseph Gabriel Antoine Jogand-Pagès, better known by the pen name Léo Taxil was a French writer and journalist who became known for his strong anti-Catholic and anti-clerical views. He is also known for the Taxil hoax, a spurious expose of Freemasonry and the Roman Catholic Church's opposition to it. Marie Joseph Gabriel Antoine Jogand-Pagès was born in Marseille, and at the age of five, he was placed into a Jesuit seminary. After spending his childhood years in the seminary, he became disillusioned with the Catholic faith and began to see the religious ideology as socially harmful. Taxil first became known for writing anti-Clerical or anti-Catholic books, notably "La Bible amusante" (The Amusing Bible) and "La Vie de Jesus" (The Life of Jesus), in which Taxil satirically pointed out inconsistencies, errors, and false beliefs presented in these religious works. In his other books Les Debauches d'un confesseur (with Karl Milo), Les Pornographes sacrés: la confession et les confesseurs, and Les Maîtresses du Pape, Taxil portrays leaders of the Catholic Church as hedonistic creatures exploring their fetishes in the manner of the Marquis de Sade. In 1879, he was tried at the Seine Assizes for writing a pamphlet A Bas la Calotte ("Down with the Cloth"), which was accused of insulting a religion recognized by the state, but he was acquitted. In 1885, he professed conversion to Catholicism, was solemnly received into the church, and renounced his earlier works. In the 1890s, he wrote a series of pamphlets and books denouncing Freemasonry, charging their lodges with worshiping the devil and alleging that Diana Vaughan had written for him her confessions of the Satanic "Palladist" cult. The book had great sales among Catholics, although Diana Vaughan never appeared in public. In 1892, Taxil also began to publish a paper, La France chrétienne anti-maçonnique (Christian Antimasonic France), with his staunch anti-Masonic publishing friend, Abel Clarin de la Rive. In 1887, he had an audience with Pope Leo XIII, who rebuked the bishop of Charleston for denouncing the anti-Masonic confessions as a fraud and, in 1896, sent his blessing to an anti-Masonic Congress of Trent. Doubts about Vaughan's veracity and even her existence began to grow, and finally, Taxil promised to produce her at a lecture to be delivered by him on 19 April 1897. To the amazement of the audience (which included a number of priests), he announced that Diana was one of a series of hoaxes. He had begun, he said, by persuading the commandant of Marseille that the harbor was infested with sharks, and a ship was sent to destroy them. Next, he invented an underwater city in Lake Geneva, drawing tourists and archaeologists to the spot. He thanked the bishops and Catholic newspapers for facilitating his crowning hoax, namely his conversion, which had exposed the anti-Masonic fanaticism of many Catholics. Diana Vaughan was revealed to be a simple typist in his employ, who laughingly allowed her name to be used by him.The audience received these revelations with indignation and contempt. Afterwards, Taxil left the hall, where policemen escorted him to a neighboring café. He then moved away from Paris. He died in Sceaux in 1907. First Greek Edition. Rare. Only one copy in OCLC: 758917323.
