EDITORS COMMENTS
Andrea Lilio's Putto with Garland is a beautiful 17th century pen and brown ink drawing with brush and brown wash squared in red chalk on ivory laid paper laid down on blue laid paper, held in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago. This artwork showcases a cherubic putto, or amorino, who is depicted in a graceful and contemplative posture as he kneels among a lush garden setting. The putto gazes away from the viewer, lost in thought as he tenderly cradles a garland of flowers in his arms. The delicate and intricate details of the drawing are brought to life through Lilio's masterful use of pen and ink, creating a sense of depth and texture that invites the viewer to explore the image further. The putto's nakedness is tastefully rendered, adding to the ethereal and otherworldly quality of the artwork. The use of brown ink and wash, along with the addition of red chalk for squaring, adds a richness and depth to the drawing that enhances the natural beauty of the scene. The grid lines, a common technique used during the Renaissance period for transferring designs, add an interesting historical context to the artwork. Lilio's Putto with Garland is a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of Italian art from the seventeenth century. The artwork's peaceful and serene composition invites reflection and contemplation, making it a beloved addition to any art gallery or museum collection.
