EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite talent of Italian Venetian painter and printmaker, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Titled "Hovering Cupids and one of the Horae with a sun steed" this artwork was created as a study for the ceiling frescoes of the staircase-hall in the Würzburg Residence, Germany. In this piece, Tiepolo masterfully captures an allegorical scene filled with celestial beings. One of the Horae is depicted riding a magnificent sun-steed while three hovering cupids surround her. The delicate chalk lines on paper bring life to these ethereal figures, showcasing Tiepolo's exceptional skill in capturing movement and grace. Tiepolo's artistic prowess extended beyond Italy as he worked extensively in Germany and Spain. His commissions included grand frescoes for churches and palaces, solidifying his reputation as one of the most important artists of his time. Additionally, he served as President of the Academy of Padua, further highlighting his influence within the art world. This particular print was once part of the esteemed collection at Kupferstichkabinett in Stuttgart, Germany. It now finds its place among other remarkable works within "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" series by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln. As we admire this monochromatic masterpiece, we are transported into a realm where cherubs dance amidst divine creatures—a testament to Tiepolo's ability to create awe-inspiring imagery that transcends time.
