CHARLES ROGERS - 1711-1784
Important collection of prints
ROGERS, Charles.- A collection of prints in imitation of drawings. To which are annexed lives of their authors.- London: printed by J. Nichols, 1778.- 2 vols.: il.; 52 cm.- E. Charles Rogers (1711-1784), a learned English collector and patron of art, hired the best engravers of the time, including Bartolozzi, Basire and Ryland, to reproduce, with the most appropriate engraving techniques, not only his collection of drawings , but also those of other collectors: That these prints may be faithful imitations, they are engraved the same way as, as well as the same size, as the originals are drawn; and printed, as nearly as possible, in the same colours. Among the artists represented are Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, Caravaggio, Correggio, Poussin, Boucher, Rubens, van Dyck, Rembrandt, etc. The collation of each of the volumes is as follows: vol. I - [6], VI, 217, [3] p .: il .; vol. II - [4], 246 p .: il. Copy with nine prints in the first volume and five in the second (Guercino's two prints, which should follow page 116, are bound between pages 84 and 85 of the first volume). Each of one of them includes an index that, however, is not very reliable. Altogether, the two volumes reproduce more than a hundred works of art in engraved prints, largely dotted, sepia, bisque, gray and gray-green (five of them are double prints). The edition is printed on high quality paper. Copy with slight acidity and occasional stains. Entire calf bindings of the twentieth century.
