Wilton album, folio 19e: The Virgin and Child; the child, right, seated on a cushion on a pillar
On folio 19 with ten other prints: 27.78.1(88-91 and 93-98). Inscribed in pen and ink along the lower margin of the album folio: 'Inigo Jones so fond of Parmegiano, that he bought the Prints of the Imperfect Plates, which are no [sic] here in this Book'.
For more information on the Wilton album see entry for 27.78.1(1-428)
Bartsch attributed the print to Battista del Moro and the design to Parmigianino. The execution is stylistically close to the work of Angelo Falconetto. An impression of the first state. For a later state, in which the shading of the pillar is entirely reworked, see The Metropolitan Museum of Art Mariette Album (folio 8)
