Very good.
Description
Bogota, Colombia, 1863. Very good.. Large broadside, approximately 17 x 11 inches. Previously folded. Small chip at right edge, not affecting text. A large and unrecorded broadside, dated June 12, 1863, printed in two columns and addressed to Manuel Suarez Fortoul, the chief magistrate of Bogota regarding the recently passed law on the property of religious orders. The law, which allowed for taxes on such property, caused much consternation in Colombia, as did similar laws elsewhere in Latin America during the mid-19th century. Here, the author Manuel I. Narvaez offers a detailed, extensive, and outraged sixteen-point rebuttal of the magistrate's arguments for the constitutionality of the law. Not in OCLC.

(CHIAROSCURO) ANONOMYOUS. LA VIERGE ACCOMPAGNEE DE QUELQUES SAINTS, after Francesco Mazzuoli (Parmigianino). N.P.: n.d. Broadsheet. (11.7 x 8.31 inches). [Bartsch 64.24.I]. Images of the virgin Mary were very popular for artists of the period. There are two other interpretations of this version by Parmigianino, one by Alexand Ghandini and the other by Niccolo Vicentino, that are recorded by Bartsch. O the three, this is more representative of a Renaissance drawing with a simple and more delicate line block using parallel lines and cross--hatching to prod the shadow effects. The print was made from two blocks using a fairly evenly inked tan for tone. The plate has been damaged with two small areas filled i Despite this serious defect, the print itself is of considerable charm and merit.
