Frederick Christian Lewis & Gregorio Pagani

Frederick Christian Lewis and Gregorio Pagani - The Finding of the True Cross The Italian School of Design

The Finding of the True Cross (The Italian School of Design)

"The Finding of the True Cross" is an original etching and aquatint created by Frederick Christian Lewis based upon a drawing created by the Italian artist, Gregorio Pagani. This impression is printed upon 'Whatman' watermarked paper and with wide, full margins as created by F. C. Lewis in 1812 for William Young Ottley's portfolio entitled, The Italian School of Design published by Taylor and Hessey, 13, Waterloo Place, and 93, Fleet-Street, London in 1823. Although there is no trace of Gregorio Pagani's painting entitled, The Finding of the True Cross, there is some reference to it having been painted in an unknown church in Florence that burnt down. However, the most important records are the preparatory drawings created by Pagani as well as engravings after Pagaini's painting that depict this image, such is the case with this original etching and aquatint created by Frederick Christian Lewis which is based upon Gregorio Pagani's drawing housed in His Majesty's Collection.

Note: Frederick Christian Lewis 'F. C. Lewis': A prominent early nineteenth century painter, etcher, aquatint and stipple engraver, Frederick Christian Lewis was a pupil of J. C. Stadler and studied at the Royal Academy Schools. Frederick Christian Lewis was a tremendously skilled and versatile printmaker, as witnessed in an original work of art such as this where he relies almost completely upon the most complex medium of soft ground etching to best simulate the appearance of drawing. Besides working regularly for William Ottley, Frederick Christian Lewis also contributed etchings for J. M. W. Turner's famous, Liber Studiorum, and was regularly commissioned by members of the British Royal Family.
  Gregorio Pagani : Mainly active in Florence, Gregorio Pagani (Florence, 1558 - 1605), was an Italian painter of the late Mannerist period. He studied under Santi di Tito and Ludovico Cigoli and was influenced various painters such as Correggio and Carducho. A few of his works include the frescoes of the Confirmation of the Rule of St. Dominic, Pyramus and Thisbe in Florence, the St. Lawrence in the basilica of the Madonna delle Grazie at San Giovanni, Valderno as well as other important paintings and Frescoes which can be found in Florence. Although there is no trace of Gregorio Pagani's painting entitled, The Finding of the True Cross there is some reference to it having been painted in an unknown church in Florence that burnt down. However and most importantly, the preparatory drawings created by Pagani as well as the engravings after his painting serve as historical records of the existence of The Finding of the True Cross, such is the case with this original etching and aquatint created by Frederick Christian Lewis which is based upon an actual drawing housed in His Majesty's Collection which was designed by the Italian artist, Gregorio Pagani. This original etching hails from the portfolio entitled, "The Italian School of Design" published by William Young Ottley in 1812.
  William Young Ottley: Born in Thatcham, England, 1771, William Ottley will forever be remembered both as an artist and as an art scholar. Having studied art under Cuitt and then in the Schools of the Royal Academy, London, William Ottley went to Italy in 1791 where he resided for ten years, researching and collecting works of Renaissance art.During his life Ottley became the greatest authority on the art of the Italian Renaissance and, upon returning to London, published a number of portfolios and books upon this subject. Apart from the biographical and scholarly information Ottley unearthed, the most valuable product of his researches was the meticulously detailed and artistic etchings and engravings he published. Either in their large folio size or in the smaller miniatures, these outstanding masterpieces of original printmaking have been admired for almost two centuries. Later in his life (1833), William Young Ottley was appointed to the prestigious post of Keeper of the Prints for the British Museum.
  The literary contributions of William Young Ottley included such works as, "The Italian School Of Design" (1808-1823), "An Inquiry Into The Origin And Early History of Engraving, Upon copper and in Wood, With An Account of Engravers And Their Works, From The Invention of Chalcography By Maso Finiguerra, To The Time of Marc' Antonio Raimondi", 2 volumes, (1816), "Engravings Of The Most Noble The Marquis Of Stafford's Collection Of Pictures, In London, Arranged According To Schools, And In Chronological Order, With Remarks On Each Picture,", 3 vols. (1818), "A Series of Plates, Engraved After The Paintings And Sculptures Of The Most Eminent Masters Of The Early Florentine School"; (1826), "A Descriptive Catalogue of The Pictures In The National Gallery" (1826), "The Original and Early History of Engraving", 2 volumes (1826), and "A Collection of One Hundred and Twenty-Nine Fac-Similes of Scarce and Curious Prints, By the Early Masters of the Italian, German, and Flemish Schools" (1828). Then in (1831), Ottley authored, "Notices of Engravers, and Their Works: Being The Commencement of a New Dictionary, Which it is Not Intended Continue, Containing Some Account of Upwards of Three Hundred Masters...", and "An Enquiry Concerning the Invention of Printing" was published posthumously (1863). The Finding of the True Cross by Frederick Christian Lewis etched after a drawing by Gregorio Pagani hails from William Young Ottley's portfolio entitled, The Italian School of Design published by Taylor and Hessey, 13, Waterloo Place, and 93, Fleet-Street, London in 1823.
  Of all Ottley's works of art, The Italian School of Design stands as his paramount achievement. Concentrating upon the drawings in his own collection by such masters of the High Renaissance as Raphaele, Correggio, the Carraccis, Salvator Rosa and other early Italian artists, William Ottley began work on his major opus as early as 1808, publishing etchings and engravings in monthly parts and concluding the work in 1823. Altogether the completed portfolio contained eighty-four plates, engraved by such eminent artists as Luigi Schiavonetti (1765 - 1810), Thomas Vivares (1735 - 1821), William Long (act. early 19th c.), Giovanni Vendramini (1769 - 1839), J. Perry, John Romney (1786 - 1863), Ignace Joseph de Claussen (1769 95 - 1844), William Young Ottley (1771 - 1836), Frederick Christian Lewis (1779 - 1856), and his younger brother, George Lewis (1782 - 1871), and others. The utmost care was taken with each engraved work, with the artists often venturing into the most complex mediums, such as stippling, soft-ground and aquatint. Ottley himself supervised the progress of each etching. These original etchings revolutionized British trends in art and had a profound impact upon the art of the Pre-Raphaelites in the later nineteenth century. An original etching and aquatint, The Finding of the True Cross was etched in 1812 by Frederick Christian Lewis for William Young Ottley's The Italian School of Design. The Royal Academy of Arts Museum, London includes an impression of "The Finding of the True Cross" from the 1823 “The Italian School of Design” edition in its collection (Object number:17/4080).
