Untitled
editCould do with a table perhaps? 1 record per image, with column headers such as Image (a 10px thumbnail or something, at the start of the record), Title, Male partner, Female partner, Sexual Position, Attributes, Notes etc. I throw that into the ring to see if someone could start it off, and I'll do some of the subsequent work, as I may not have time to start it myself. Although what order will we put the images in? Frontispiece 1st, obviously, but then what? Neddyseagoon - talk 18:06, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Best of luck, but to judge by the rudimentary state of most printmaking articles, I expect you will have to do it yourself! Johnbod 19:52, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Book
editIs this the right term - do we know if the early editions were ever bound, or intended to be? Johnbod (talk) 17:47, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
Inaccuracies: L`Aretin d`Augustin Carrache and I Modi are not closely related
editThe series I Modi was not based on the paintings suggested in the article. According to recent research by Bette Talvacchia, Romano gave the drawings to Marcantonio Raimondi as a parting gift when Romano left Vienna to decorate the Palazzo Te in Mantua. Raimondi then made engravings of these drawings.
Also, though L`Aretin d`Augustin Carrache was based on sonnets by Aretino, they are not directly related to the original I Modi and should really be seperated from this article.

- You might well be right, but we would need a better source than the website; where did Talvacchia publish? Johnbod (talk) 11:00, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
- It was originally published in her book "Taking Positions: On the Erotic in Renaissance Culture" Buddha83 (talk) 11:10, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
- Do you have page numbers? I've had a look at the google books sample, which talks of drawings, but seems to be missing that bit. If you want to add & reference it yourself, please do so, but I think the old theory should still be mentioned for now. Were there ever paintings also made by Giulio?

- My copy's out on loan at the moment, though I think I have another book that references it so I'll see if I can fish it out... if not, my copy of Taking Positions should be back by the end of the week. Buddha83 (talk) 06:59, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

- Buddha83's comments from 2011 are very relevant. L`Aretin d`Augustin Carrache has little to do with I Modi. In addition, the attribution to Carracci all over Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons is dubious. Agostino Carracci did make erotic engravings but they belonged to the so-called Lascivie series. Many of these can be found today in the British Museum collection (see Lascivie to view). They have (predictably) been conflated with I Modi. The best immediate solution is to create a separate Wikipedia article entitled L`Aretin d`Augustin Carrache that consists of the "Later Edition" section of the current I Modi article. Also, Jacques Joseph Coiny should be acknowledged as the engraver, not Carracci. Talvacchia should be considered the definitive source here. Randy Wagner (talk) 22:20, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Some forgotten points ?
edit1/ Around 1825, Jean-Frédéric Waldeck found the Raimondi fragments in the British Library (Private section) : cf. Jeanron et Léopold Leclanché Vies de Vasari, Paris, chez Just Tessier, p. 33-71.
2/ An ink called I Amanti (post-1524) signed Romano is at Budapest Museum of Arts (see on Commons)
3/ A unique copy of the 1527 Venitian Print Edition has been found by Gerard Nordmann, shown in Geneva in 2004 (cf. catalogue Eros invancu, Paris/Genève, Cercle d'art, 2004).
