EDITORS COMMENTS

Created in the mid-18th century, this particular piece was captured in 1928 on chalk paper. The original artwork was once part of Dr Hans Wendland's collection in Lugano, Switzerland. Tiepolo's artistic talents extended beyond Italy as he also worked in Germany and Spain. He received numerous commissions to create frescoes for churches and palaces, solidifying his reputation as one of the most important artists of his time. His works were characterized by their grandeur and majesty. In addition to large-scale paintings, Tiepolo also produced etchings like this one, showcasing his versatility as an artist. This 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. "Mater Dolorosa" depicts a sorrowful Virgin Mary known as Our Lady of Sorrows or Mater Dolorosa. This religious concept portrays Mary grieving over her son Jesus' suffering during his crucifixion. The monochrome image captures the emotional depth conveyed through Tiepolo's delicate lines and shading techniques.
