the engravings based on guercino's drawings are among the finest examples of the refined and international taste of the 18th century. His drawings—admired for their soft lines and the baroque grace of the figures—were interpreted by great engravers (such as francesco bartolozzi), resulting in high-quality prints destined for european collectors. Highly prized then as they are today!
