    Summary

    Description
    English: Engravings with erotic scenes.

    Nine fragments depicting the 'Loves of the Gods' (I Modi ['the Positions']), mounted on a sheet; four depicting a female head in profile, three depicting the naked upper torso and head of a female reclining on a bed in various positions suggesting intercourse; two nude males seen from the torso up. [1]

    Thought to be based on sixteen erotic engravings by Marcantonio Raimondi. The engravings in this image possibly created by Agostino Venezian.

    From the British Museum: "These have traditionally been regarded as the only surviving fragments of Marcantonio's famous series of 'I Modi'. They are discussed by James Grantham Turner in 'Print Quarterly' December 2004, XXI, pp.369-79, who concludes that they come from a single 'replacement' set for Marcantonio's originals, re-engraved in the same direction perhaps by Agostino Veneziano. In this case no original engraving or fragment of one survives. Each fragment is further discussed by James Grantham Turner in 'Art and love in Renaissance Italy', Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 2008, cat.99, pp.200-202," [1]
