Baroque Printmakers

Engravers and etchers of the Baroque, the seventeenth century style of movement, contrast and drama, who reproduced paintings and made original prints of people, battles and courts. A printmaker belongs here when the cited article calls the artist Baroque. It excludes the Renaissance and Mannerist printmakers before them and the Romantic printmakers after. Many made etchings of courts, battles and religious scenes or copied paintings by the great Baroque painters, so a printmaker is placed here by the style or period the article gives for the person, not by subject alone.
