CRE CALLOT, Jacques; (French; 1592-1635) State I/II. The Duellist with two Sabres is from a set also called "Les Gobbis", "Les Bossus", "Les Pygmees", "Les Nains Grotesques". Apart from the frontispiece this series has 20 plates, each picturing a deformed person. The frontispiece itself was etched in Italy at an earlier date than the rest of the set. The Gobbis were actually a well known troop of dwarfs who performed throughout Italy during the early years of the 17th century. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | HUNTCHBACK : GROTESQUE : DUELLIST : SWORD : VOLUME : GOBBI : DWARF : SET : THEATRE : PERFORMER : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
