EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Boy with a lace collar holding a piece of fruit in his hands, 1743" transports us back to the elegance and charm of the 18th century. The image is an exquisite reproduction of Giovanni Battista Piazzetta's original artwork, Plate 4 from Icones ad vivum expressae. The young boy depicted in this etching exudes innocence and curiosity as he delicately holds a piece of fruit in his hands. His lace collar adds a touch of refinement to his attire, reflecting the fashion trends of that era. With great attention to detail, Giovanni Cattini skillfully captures the intricate facial expression and clothing style typical during this period. The setting remains unknown; however, it evokes a sense of tranquility and serenity that perfectly complements the subject's contemplative gaze. This masterpiece is housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, showcasing its historical significance within Italian art. Giovanni Cattini's print not only pays homage to Piazzetta's genius but also invites viewers into an enchanting world where time seems suspended. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to transcend centuries and connect us with our past.
