DELLA BELLA, STEFANO (1610-1664)

This article appears in Volume V07, Page 965 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DAH-DEM
DELLA BELLA, STEFANO (1610-1664) , Italian engraver, was
born
  at Florence. He was apprenticed to a goldsmith; but some prints of
Callot
  having fallen into his hands, he began to turn his attention entirely towards engraving, and studied the art under Canta Gallina, who had also been the instructor of
Callot
 . By the liberality of Lorenzo de' Medici he was enabled to spend three years in study at Rome. In 1642 he went to Paris, where
Cardinal
 
Richelieu
  engaged him to go to
Arras
  and make drawings of the siege and taking of that
town
  by the royal army. After residing a considerable
time
  at Paris he returned to Florence, where he obtained a pension from the
grand
 
duke
 , whose son, Cosmo, he instructed in drawing. His productions were very numerous, amounting to over 1400
separate
  pieces.
