Christ and the Adulteress, Diana Mantuana, after Giulio Romano, 1613
engraving, h 420mm × w 580mm More details
A year after Diana Mantuana’s death, this print was republished by Antonio Caravano. Although her name was already noted twice in the print – in the signature and in the dedication to the Duchess of Mantua at the lower right – the publisher took the trouble to mention the artist’s name once more. This may have been a tribute to the printmaker, who was even admired by the artists’ biographer Vasari.
