EDITORS COMMENTS

Created in 1928, this chalk on paper artwork was once part of the esteemed collection at Staatliche Sammlungen in Weimar, Germany. Tiepolo's artistic talents extended beyond Italy as he also worked in Germany and Spain. His expertise led to numerous commissions for frescoes in churches and palaces, solidifying his reputation as one of the most important artists of his time. Additionally, Tiepolo served as President of the Academy of Padua. While widely recognized for his grand-scale works, Tiepolo also excelled in etchings and oil paintings. This particular illustration is featured in Volume II of "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln, published by The Pegasus Press in Paris.

This print serves as a testament to Tiepolo's immense talent and enduring legacy within the art world.
