Antonio Ricciani

Antonio Ricciani is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Antonio Ricciani made prints of religious scenes in the late 1700s and early 1800s. His Mary Magdalen shows the biblical figure in quiet reflection, typical of the era’s devotional prints. These prints were meant to be affordable art for homes, not just big paintings for churches. See how the fine lines and soft shading create gentle folds in her robe. Want a closer look? Tap Mary Magdalen to zoom in.
