Pietro Sante Bartoli

Pietro Sante Bartoli is documented as being active in the field of printmaking circa 1645. His surviving output primarily consists of engraved or etched works detailing religious and figural studies consistent with the style of the mid-17th century.

Fifteen of his prints are currently represented in major museum collections, confirming the artist's engagement with subjects ranging from narrative devotional scenes to individual portraiture. The Rijksmuseum holds a significant portion of these documented works, establishing the institution as a primary repository for the artist’s known output.

The collection includes the multipart devotional composition Aanbidding door de koningen (linker deel) and its corresponding section, Aanbidding door de koningen (midden deel). Other notable pieces preserved are the figural study Boetserende en schrijvende man and the religious depictions Apostel Andreas and Johannes predikend. Bartoli's work is today often accessible as high-quality prints through institutional digital catalogs, with many of these historic Pietro Sante Bartoli prints available under public domain licensing for research and educational purposes.
