Madonna with two female Saints, 1747-1748, (1928). Artist: Giovanni Battista Tiepolo
Madonna with two female Saints, 1747-1748, (1928). The Madonna (?) and Child and two female Saints, pen with wash on paper. Probably a sketch for the pala delle Sante altarpiece in the Church of the Gesuati in Venice, Italy, painted 1747-1748. If so, the seated figure would be St Rose of Lima, and the two standing figures St Catherine of Siena and St Agnes of Montepulciano. At one time known to have been in the Former Orloff Collection, Paris, France. Italian Venetian painter and printmaker Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770), worked not only in Italy, but also in Germany and Spain. He was commissioned to carry out frescoes in churches and palaces, and was elected President of the Academy of Padua. As well as his large-scale majestic works, he also produced etchings and oil paintings, and is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of the period. Illustration from The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, Volume I, by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln. [The Pegasus Press, Paris, 1928]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's masterpiece, "Madonna with two female Saints" created between 1747 and 1748. The artwork is believed to be a sketch for the pala delle Sante altarpiece in the Church of the Gesuati in Venice, Italy. The central figure depicts the Madonna and Child, radiating divine serenity and maternal tenderness. Flanking her are two female saints: St Rose of Lima seated on one side and St Catherine of Siena alongside St Agnes of Montepulciano standing on the other. Tiepolo's exceptional talent as an Italian Venetian painter and printmaker shines through this piece. His expertise extended beyond Italy, as he also worked in Germany and Spain, leaving his artistic mark across Europe. Renowned for his frescoes adorning churches and palaces, Tiepolo was elected President of the Academy of Padua. In addition to grand-scale works like this one, Tiepolo explored various mediums such as etchings and oil paintings throughout his career. His contributions have solidified him as one of the most significant artists of his time. This particular print comes from "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln (Volume I), published by The Pegasus Press in Paris in 1928. It offers viewers a glimpse into Tiepolo's creative process while celebrating his mastery over pen with wash on paper technique.
