Bartolomeo Coriolano
Bartolommeo Coriolano (1590Thomas 1915 p. 716 or 1599McClintock and Strong 1969 p. 113–1676, pronunciation ko-ree-o-lă'no and sometimes spelled Coriolanus) was an Italian printmaker during the Baroque period, mainly in colour woodcuts. His father, Cristoforo Coriolano, and brother, Giovanni Battista Coriolano were also woodcut printmakers, although there is some doubt over the actual relationship between Cristoforo and Bartolommeo Coriolano.

Coriolano's works are the most celebrated of the works produced by the Coriolano family. Biography Coriolano w ...
