EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Italian Venetian painter and printmaker, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Titled "Head of a Youth, almost in profile and looking up" this mid-18th-century piece captures the essence of youthful curiosity and contemplation. Tiepolo's mastery is evident in his delicate use of chalk on paper, which brings out the subtle details of the subject's facial features. The youth's gaze directed upwards adds an air of introspection to the composition, inviting viewers to ponder what thoughts might be running through his mind. Once part of Dr Hans Wendland's esteemed collection in Lugano, Switzerland, this artwork holds historical significance. Tiepolo was renowned for his frescoes adorning churches and palaces across Italy, Germany, and Spain. His artistic prowess earned him recognition as President of the Academy of Padua during his lifetime. "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln serves as a valuable resource for art enthusiasts seeking deeper insights into Tiepolo's body of work. This particular illustration from Volume II transports us back to 1928 when it was published by The Pegasus Press in Paris. As we admire this remarkable portrait today, we are reminded that Tiepolo remains one of the most influential artists from the 18th century. His ability to capture human emotion with such finesse continues to inspire generations beyond his time.
