He wrote regularly on prints for the art magazines The Studio and Apollo.

Copia, nello stesso verso, da un niello appartenuto alla collezione Durazzo, oggi non reperito. I nielli della collezione Durazzo vennero fatti riprodurre in incisioni proprio 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 terminus ante quem per l'esecuzione. Copy, from a niello belonged to the Durazzo collection, now lost. 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. The composition seems to have as pendant the niello depicting St. George and the dragon
