EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "Chronos and a Young Woman" by the renowned Italian Venetian painter, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Created in the mid-18th century, this piece depicts an allegorical figure of Chronos, the personification of time, alongside a young woman symbolizing youth or beauty. Tiepolo's mastery is evident in this pen with wash on paper composition, which beautifully captures the contrast between age and vitality. The artist's versatility shines through as he seamlessly transitions from his large-scale frescoes to smaller-scale etchings like this one. The provenance of this artwork adds to its allure. It was once part of Professor W Bateson's collection in London before finding its way into the prestigious Horne Foundation in Florence, Italy. Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's contributions to art extend beyond Italy; he also left his mark in Germany and Spain. His talent earned him commissions for various churches and palaces throughout his career. Additionally, Tiepolo held esteemed positions such as President of the Academy of Padua. This particular image comes from Volume I of "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln, published by The Pegasus Press in Paris during 1928. Its inclusion within this publication further solidifies its significance as an important piece within Tiepolo's body of work.
