EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Zephyr and Flora" by renowned Italian Venetian painter and printmaker Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Created in the mid-18th century, this particular print was produced in 1928 using pen with wash on white paper. Tiepolo's artistic prowess extended beyond Italy, as he also left his mark in Germany and Spain. His exceptional talent earned him prestigious commissions to adorn churches and palaces with breathtaking frescoes. Additionally, Tiepolo held the esteemed position of President of the Academy of Padua. While widely recognized for his grandiose works, Tiepolo's versatility is evident through his etchings and oil paintings. Regarded as one of the most significant artists of his time, he captured both mythological subjects like Zephyr (the Greek god of the west wind) and Flora (the Roman goddess of flowers) as well as religious themes. The image featured here is an illustration from "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo". Volume I by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln. This volume was published by The Pegasus Press in Paris in 1928. With its monochrome aesthetic, this black-and-white print beautifully captures the intricate details and ethereal quality that define Tiepolo's work. It serves as a testament to his mastery over various mediums while immortalizing a moment from art history that continues to inspire awe today.
