Paul GLEDITSCH (Vienna 1793 - 1872) "Die Madonna mit dem Jesukinde" (Madonna and Child, Saint Catherine of Alexandria and Saint Mary Magdalene) Original etching by a subject by Pietro Vannucci known as Perugino (1448ca - 1523). Beautiful copy printed with perfect inking on heavy paper, with large margins beyond the imprint of the plate and in an almost perfect general state of conservation. From the legend it is clear that the subject reproduced by Gleditsch was found in the collection of Franz Ernst Conte di Harrach (1799 - 1884), some compositional details, such as the absence of angels and the wording "Petrus Peruginus Fec MDVIII" that differentiate it from the painting in the collections of the Louvre (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tondo_della_Vergine_col_Bambino_tra_due_sante_e_due_angeli) placed temporally between 1490 and 1492, they suggest that it could be a copy or another version of the same subject, especially this one not secondary interest. Bibliography: Thieme - Becker "Allgemeines Lexicon der bildenden Kunstler" Leipzig, sd vol.XIV pag.247. Measurements in mm: 462 x 395
