Bulino, 1530, firmato in lastra, in basso nell’immagine, con il monogramma “L” seguito dall’iscrizione “SPES”. Esemplare nel primo stato, di tre.Superba prova, ricca di toni e ben contrastata, impressa su carta vergata coeva, rifilata alla linea del rame, in eccellente stato conservativo.Della serie “Le Virtù”, composta da sette tavole. La data, 1530, è riportata sulla prima e sulla quarta tavola, raffiguranti le virtù della Fede e della Prudenza.“Le Virtù cristiane, dette teologali, erano Fede, Speranza e Carità, e a queste ultime i padri della chiesa aggiunsero le quattro virtù cardinali descritte nella repubblica di Platone: Giustizia, Prudenza e Temperanza. Cosicchè questi soggetti trattati dagli artisti come serie, alle volte in contrasto con i Vizi Capitali (che Luca non eseguì) erano graditi al Clero. Luca, sempre attento a eseguire immagini che potessero essere facilmente apprezzate, si impegnò a fondo eseguendo questi sette nudi nel suo stile italianeggiante in cui gli effetti di monumentalità e di tutto tondo sono particolarmente riusciti.” (Salamon, 114) Engraving, 1530, signed with the monogram "L" and lettered "SPES". First state, of three.Magnificent work, printed on contemporary laid paper, trimmed close to platemark, in excellent condition.A nude allegorical figure of hope sits on a stone ledge in profile to right, her hands are raised before her and she looks out of a doorway at back right toward a ray of light in the sky at upper right; an angel at upper left holds a halo over her head.The plate is the second in a series of seven plates of the Virtues. Two of the seven plates bear the date 1530.The Christian Virtues, called theological, were Faith, Hope and Charity, and to the latter the fathers of the church added the four cardinal virtues described in Plato's republic: Justice, Prudence and Temperance. So these subjects treated by the artists as serious, sometimes in contrast to the Capital Vices (which Luke did not perform) were appreciated by the Clergy. Luca, always careful to execute images that could be easily appreciated, worked hard to execute these seven nudes in his Italian style in which the effects of monumentality and all-round are particularly successful.
