Girolamo Fagiuoli (Italian, active Bologna by 1539, d. 1574)
|
|
|
|
Fagiuoli was active in Bologna during the middle third of the sixteenth century. Vasari mentions him briefly. He is known to have made engravings after artists including Perino del Vaga and Francesco Salviati and, according to Suzanne Boorsch, at least some of the prints recently attributed to Nicholas Beatrizet (fl. c. 1540-?73) are actually the work of "another engraver, the little-known Girolamo Fagiuoli."
Bibliography: Edith Wyss, The Myth of Apollo and Marsyas in the Art of the Italian Renaissance: An Inquiry into the Meaning of Images (Newark: University of Delaware Press, 1996), reprints Fagiuoli's engraving of The Flaying of Marsyas after Francesco Salviati's drawing on p. 89.
