1549
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Palazzo Maccarani Stati in Sant'Eustachio is a 1549 ink by Italian 16th Century, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This engraving shows a three-story palace with arched and triangular windows stacked in a neat pattern. The front door sits below a balcony with a small roof. Built in 1549, this is one of Giulio Romano’s rare surviving buildings. He worked mostly as a painter and designer, but this palace proves his skill in stone. Check out the cross-hatching in the shadows—it gives depth without any color. Look up the technique next.
A 16th-century Italian sculptor left us small bronze works in dark brown and gold.
