Michelangelo prints - Part 4

Following the series on Michelangelo's works, this series features prints, mainly etchings and engravings made after his works. Many of them are contemporary to Michelangelo's own works, mostly 16th century and a few at the end of the series from the early 1800s.

Note: Many of the prints look similar to each other because they are copies of the same imagery, but most often at different dates.
