Notes

See H,5.114 for another impression. Incomplete series of "Amori Sdegni et Gielosie di Giunone", bound together in brown leather, lettered on the spine 'Amori di Giunone', and gold decoration. Book, with frontispiece, and 17 plates (the original series is composed of 22 plates: Bartsch, v. XV, no. 120, 124, 126 and 130 are missing). Album with octagonal "MVSAEVM BRITANNICVM" (Sloane), annotated by Sloane on the second page ('MCXX').

This series of prints is dedicated to the loves and jealousies of the goddess, Juno, the designs for which seem to be of Giulio's own invention. The series was heavily infleunced by artists such as Parmigianino and Titian, as noted by Bartsch, and also, by Correggio, Raphael and Marcantonio Raimondi. Each print has an ornamental frame and features verses in the bottom register, as well as Giulio's name as 'inventor'. It has been suggested by Massari that the series was perhaps commissioned by or connected to the Accademia Bocchiana, Bologna. (Stefania Massari, 'Giulio Bonasone', Vol. 1, Rome, 1983, p. 115)

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.
This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
