Bernardo Daddi, known as the Master of the Thimble (1512?-1570) Sacrifice of Priape. Burin after Raphael or Giulio Romano. [290 x 165]. Bartsch 27; Nagler, Die Monogrammisten, I, 690.9. Superb and rare proof on cream laid paper, perhaps the only one of its kind, from a very early state, before the prudish retouching on the virile member, with a finely engraved point remark (Silenus elongated) between the two quatrains. Narrow margins. Watermark: compass (close to Briquet 4460). Ex-coll. Friedrich Quiring (Lugt 1041c, "only on the best leaves.")
