Penensus, F

Penensus, F.

an engraver, probably an Italian, by whom there are some spirited etchings of devout subjects after Italian masters and from his own designs, marked with his name, among which are the Holy Family, with St. Catharine and an angel in the air, after Parmiggiano, and the Marriage of St. Catharine, from his own design. There is a fine expression in his heads, but he was negligent and incorrect in designing the extremities.
