Post by: archigrog on July 15, 2019, 02:45:38 PM
Dear all,

can someone give me some information regarding this flat? It's about 75mm, there is no base, i think cut off before painting.

Don't know, but I found a flat painted on sales on Ebay in the past, with indication on the base of "TO"

perhaps Gerhart Tobinnus engraver? but I ignore the editor

This figure is Stefano Colonna from Tobinnus.
Unfortunately I cannot say who actual the mould owns.

Hello,

there was also a 30mm version of this figure together with some other spanish footsoldiers of the early 16th century edited by Mr. Tobinnus.

Frank Dittmar of Schmalkalden bought the moulds but not show them on his Homepage till now.

So maybe this mould is at Schmalkalden.

He is indeed Stefano Colonna di Palestria, Italian condottiere (1490-1548), painted here by Angelo Bronzino in 1546.
