This copper engraving, titled "CALANDRUCCI: MELEAGER" is a remarkable piece of Italian art from the early 18th century. Created by Giambattista Calandrucci, this print showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. In this image, we see Meleager, a young hunter from ancient times, depicted in profile. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Meleager's character as he stands with a spear in hand. The engraving beautifully portrays Meleager's muscular physique and determined expression. The composition offers a unique perspective with its rear view of Meleager's back and shoulder. This viewpoint adds depth to the artwork and allows us to appreciate the intricate details of his attire and weaponry.
