EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mid-18th century artwork by the renowned Italian Venetian painter and printmaker, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Titled "Woman bending to the right but looking up" this piece showcases Tiepolo's exceptional talent in capturing human form and expression. In this particular work, we see a woman gracefully bending to the right while her head is turned upwards to the left. The delicate pen strokes combined with wash on paper create a sense of movement and fluidity in her pose. It is evident that Tiepolo paid meticulous attention to detail, as every line and shadow accentuates the woman's elegant posture. Previously owned by G Bellingham Smith from London, this artwork exemplifies Tiepolo's versatility as an artist who worked not only in Italy but also in Germany and Spain. Known for his grand frescoes adorning churches and palaces, he was also elected President of the Academy of Padua during his illustrious career. Published in Detlev Baron Von Hadeln's book "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo". Volume I (1928), this print offers us a glimpse into one of history's most important artists' creative process. With its monochrome black-and-white composition, it exudes timeless beauty that continues to captivate art enthusiasts today.
