PATIN, Charlotte-Catherine - Pitture scelte e dichiarate da Carla Caterina Patina. Parigina accademica. Cologne, Pierre Marteau (Padua), Si vendono in Venezia dall'Hertz, 1691. folio, 222 pp, front after Louis Doriginy and 40 plates included in the pagination, four of which are folded and fifteen on double page, contemporary ivory vellum, spotting on second board. THIEME-BECKER XXVI, 296. Parallel edition to that published under the title: Tabellæ selectæ ac explicatæ. Padua, 1691. The address ''Cologne, Pierre Marteau'' is wrong. The ''Oratio de liberata civitate Vienna'' (2) ff. inserted after page 207 is identical in both editions. The headbands and numerous historiated initials are the same or similar. The vignette on the title (after Guido Reni) and the plates mainly reproduce the works of 16th-century Italian painters: Jacopo Bassano, Carlo Caliari, Annibale Carracci, Lodovico Carracci, Leonardo da Vinci, Titian, Veronese, Le Guerchin, etc. The engravings are sometimes signed: Jacopo Bassano, Carlo Caliari, Annibale Carracci, Lodovico Carracci, Leonardo da Vinci, Titian, Veronese, Le Guerchin, etc. The engravings are sometimes signed: Noël Cochin, Noël Robert Cochin, Martial Desbois, Josef Juster, Johann Jacob Thourneijsen the Younger, Hubert Vincent. Charlotte-Catherine Patin was the daughter of Charles Patin, who taught medicine and surgery at the University in exile in Padua. Highly cultured, she was a member of the Accademia dei Ricovrati. She also wrote the speech delivered in Padua in November 1683 on the liberation of Vienna. She enlisted the help of artists passing through Italy to reproduce the paintings, mainly by the Venetian School, preserved in the Serenissima Repubblica, to whom the book is dedicated. The last (double) plate shows her in the company of her father Charles Patin, her mother Madeleine, née Hommetz, and her sister Gabrielle-Charlotte, portrayed by Noël Jouvenet in Padua in 1684.
