Recto: Saint Joseph Calasanz prepares the fall of the demon. Double-sided plate; recto engraving depicts an apocryphal scene from the life of Saint Joseph Calasanz (José de Calasanz; born September 11, 1557 near Peralta de la Sal, Aragon; died August 25, 1648 in Rome) — Spanish Catholic priest, founder of the Piarist Order and educational reformer — who as a youth drove out a demon. Inscription at the bottom: 'S. Josephus Calasanctius puer necem malo daemoni parat.' The image belongs to a series of graphic compositions depicting images that were objects of worship, often made by anonymous engravers in monastery engraving workshops. Verso: fragment of an inscription in German, text in engraved lines with dates 1702, 1704, 1709; this is a fragment of a plate cut out from a larger page of text. Possibly dated 1748, Florence.
