About Michelangelo and The Rape of Ganymede (Beatrizet Engraving) (1542)

Nicolas Beatrizet made this engraving in 1542 after the drawing of Ganymede that Michelangelo gave to Tommaso de' Cavalieri in 1532, which is now lost. In 1532 Michelangelo met Tommaso de' Cavalieri, a young Roman nobleman, and gave him a series of highly finished drawings as gifts: mythological scenes such as the Rape of Ganymede, the Punishment of Tityus and the Fall of Phaethon, as well as ideal heads. Admired and copied at once, these presentation drawings spread across Europe through engravings. It is an engraving and measures about 43 x 28 cm.
