Note: The inscriptions on ten of the prints refer to the opera Venere gelosa, although only four document sets for this opera. The prints, signed "graué par Aveline" or "fait par Aveline", have traditionally been attributed to Pierre Aveline. W.-A. Weigert includes them in Pierre Aveline's catalog with reservations; Plate marks 21.8 x 32.2 cm. and smaller, on sheets 27.5 x 35 cm; Title from lettering on spine; The bound volume comprises 12 prints documenting sets designed by Giacomo Torelli for opera and ballet performances held in Venice and Paris. The etchings are based on earlier prints that illustrated the libretti or that were issued on the occasion of the performances; Four etchings are derived from prints issued in Apparati scenici per lo Teatro novissimo di Venetia nell anno 1644 (Venetia, 1644). They record sets designed by Torelli for the opera Venere gelosa that was performed at the Teatro novissimo in Venice in 1643. One etching, based on Nicolas Cochin's print published in Feste theatrali per La finta pazza, documents a set for the opera La finta pazza enacted at the Hôtel du Petit Bourbon in Paris in 1645. Six etchings are based on prints documenting the sets of the ballet Les noces de Pelée et de Thetis performed in the Hôtel du Petit Bourbon in Paris on April 14, 1654. One etching depicts an unidentified set by Torelli; Contents: Temple de Bacchus dans l'isle de Naxos --; Temple Elysees --; Décoration du palais d'Apolon --; Toute la perspective de la grote étant changée à la place d'vne longue suite de rochers --; Tombeaux du roy de l'isle de Naxos --; Veuë et perspective d'une décoration de théatre --; Décoration de théaÌtre du ballet de Thetis representé en machine au Petit Bourbon --; Décoration du palais de Mercure --; Champs Elysées --; Grande place du palais du roy de l'isle de Naxos --; Campagne et bocage agreable dans l'isle de Naxos --; Grand cabinet de lauriers dans les jardins du roy de l'isle de Naxos | |
