EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork titled "Hovering Genius" by Italian Venetian painter and printmaker Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Created in the mid-18th century, this particular print dates back to 1928. The image depicts a hovering genius holding a sun-disk in its right hand, drawn with chalk on paper. Tiepolo was a highly esteemed artist who not only worked in Italy but also left his mark in Germany and Spain. He was known for his grand frescoes adorning churches and palaces, as well as his oil paintings and etchings. His artistic prowess earned him recognition as one of the most significant artists of his time. The original drawing of "Hovering Genius" was once part of the collection at Kupferstichkabinett in Dresden, Germany. This piece is featured in Volume II of "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" authored by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln and published by The Pegasus Press in Paris. With its monochromatic beauty, this artwork captures both religious symbolism and mythological elements that were prevalent during the 18th century. It serves as a testament to Tiepolo's exceptional talent for bringing ethereal beings to life through his art. This print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate Tiepolo's mastery even today, providing an opportunity to delve into the rich history of European art during this period without commercial intent or use mentioned
