From the discussion of the B series of engravings, what I found of interest is this, on p. 131: https://forum.tarothistory.com/download/file.php?id=3198 Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 04-20-09 HindTriumphs_162534.pdf.png The dimensions of Love are, he says on p. 133, 260x173 mm. Chastity is 257x164. Death...

And on the A series, starting with A.I.16 on one page, then Vienna on the following: Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 03-29-41 HindTriumphs_162534.pdf.png Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 03-29-58 HindTriumphs_162534.pdf.png Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 03-30-18 HindTriumphs_162534.pdf.png Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 02-1...

Here are Hind's comments on the engravings. Note that there were several versions. There is A.I.18-23, in Vienna. Hind thinks the B series, of which the first reworking (i.e. the second state) is what the British Museum has, is what corresponds to the inventory. The BM has one plate of it, he says. ...

Ross wrote, Franco's remarks about "giuocho" meaning something besides a literal "game" are correct in the case of Rosselli, at least as art historians understand it. But his new discovery of a "paio" of Petrarch's Trionfi adds another wrinkle to the question, then. Cou...

Here is Hind's appendix on the inventory (Early Italian Engravings, I'm not sure what volume): Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 01-47-50 HindEarlyItalian294-309.pdf.png Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 01-48-46 HindEarlyItalian294-309.pdf.png Screenshot 2024-05-06 at 01-50-18 HindEarlyItalian294-309.pdf.png Screens...

Yes, of course, about the 2013 discussion. I was going to give the references, but you were too quick for me. For others, if you search for "Rosselli" and then among those results "inventory", you will get 17 hits, of which the two by Ross are the most important. There is no need...

I am now ready to post another note concerning another note of Franco's, this time about inventories relating to Petrarch, of which the most interesting lists a "paio di trionfi In charta pechora di messer franc° petrarcha" - a pack of trionfi in parchment of Messer Franco Petrarch." ...

Thanks, Ross. Franco says that it is about a lawsuit about who precisely owns the shop, the contract between the abbot and the shop manager having been kept confidential.

Here is another translation, this time of one done in April. At least I am getting it done the same month. I have skipped quite a few in between. As usual, Franco has reviewed the translation and made important suggestions. I have added in brackets some comments that may assist the Italian-deprived ...
