Antonio da Trento (after Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, known as Il Parmigianino)

While in Bologna in 1527–1530, Parmigianino made drawings to be translated into engravings and chiaroscuro woodcuts by various artists, including Antonio da Trento. Parmigianino was directly involved in the prints made by Antonio da Trento, apparently drawing on the wooden blocks himself.
