Guglielmo Morghen

Guglielmo Morghen is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Guglielmo Morghen made crisp black-and-white prints in the late 1700s and early 1800s. His engravings copy famous paintings so closely you can count the folds in a cloak or the petals on a rose. In *Venus disarming Love* you see the goddess gently taking Cupid’s bow and arrows, the scene frozen in sharp lines and deep shadows. If you like the crisp detail of old engravings, tap *Venus disarming Love* to zoom in on every etched line.
