Selected Paintings and Drawings

  • The Stoning of St. Stephen (Santo Stefano, Genoa): "Giulio never did a finer work than this," said Vasari. Domenico del Barbiere engraved the subject, so that it influenced designers who never saw the original in Genoa.

  • Fire in the Borgo, fresco (Raphael Rooms in Vatican City).
  • Emblematic Figures, pen and brown ink and wash over graphite (Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco).

Famous quotes containing the words selected, paintings and/or drawings:

    The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.
    Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    A thousand moral paintings I can show
    That shall demonstrate these quick blows of Fortune’s
    More pregnantly than words.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The pleasures of the imagination are as it were only drawings and models which are played with by poor people who cannot afford the real thing.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
