EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Vases and Vessels, nos. 248-254 ("Designs for Various Ornaments, " pl. 44)," was created by the Italian artist Michelangelo Pergolesi between July 1 and July 17, 1782. The print showcases a collection of intricately designed vases and vessels, each adorned with an array of ornaments that include amorini, cherubs, birds, and animal motifs, such as eagles and birds of prey. The designs exude an eighteenth-century charm, with floral patterns and elegant figures of cherubs and cherubim adding to the overall beauty of the pieces. Pergolesi's skillful etching and engraving techniques are evident in the intricate details of the designs, which are both decorative and conceptual in nature. The vases and vessels are depicted in various stages of completion, providing a glimpse into the artist's creative process. The black and white image, reminiscent of the interior of a grand country estate or an art gallery, invites the viewer to appreciate the rich cultural heritage of the time. This print is a testament to the enduring appeal of Italian art and the historical significance of the ornamental designs of the eighteenth century. It is a must-see for anyone interested in interior decoration, interior design, or the history of art. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful piece in its collection, allowing us to enjoy and learn from the artistic mastery of Michelangelo Pergolesi.
