Description
WILLIAM HAMILTON - FRANCESCO BARTOLOZZI - The Turkey Cock (1786) French oval watercolour print. Dimensions: 55 x 66 cm. This delicate oval watercolour print, based on a composition by William Hamilton and engraved by Francesco Bartolozzi in 1786, depicts a scene featuring children and a turkey. The work reflects the sentimental and decorative taste characteristic of the second half of the 18th century, featuring a charming and narrative composition in which the children are depicted within an elegant and refined setting. The watercolour illumination lends chromatic softness and a particularly decorative character to the whole, reinforcing the Neoclassical and Pre-Romantic sensibility typical of this type of print. It retains its original Empire-style gilt frame, probably from the 19th century. This lot is held in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
