Bartolomeo Pinell i (Rome, 1781 - Rome, 1835)
The Italian engraver, painter and ceramist, was an extremely prolific graphic artist:  it was estimated that he produced about four thousand engravings and ten thousand drawings. In his prints he illustrated the customs of Italian peoples, the great masterpieces of literature: Virgil, Dante, Tasso, Ariosto, Cervantes, Manzoni, and subjects of Roman, Greek, Napoleonic history, etc. The most common theme in general is Rome, its inhabitants, its monuments, the ancient city and its contemporary city. His work as an illustrator has, in addition to the intrinsic artistic value, a significant documentary meaning for the ethnography of Rome, Italy and Switzerland.
