EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Venus Forge Vulcan recto Sketches Two Putti verso" by Artokoloro. Created around 1716-18, this piece is a testament to the immense talent of Italian artist Sebastiano Conca. The image captures a circular composition that depicts Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, in her forge alongside Vulcan, the god of fire and metalworking. The highly detailed and monumental figures are beautifully modeled with pen strokes in black-brown ink, highlighted with white gouache. The use of lighter brown ink and brush creates depth while black chalk adds texture to the scene. On the verso side, two putti (cherubic figures) are sketched with great precision using various shades of brown wash on paper washed light brown. This juxtaposition between recto and verso offers viewers an insight into Conca's artistic process. Sebastiano Conca gained recognition during his early years in Rome when he received his first official academic successes. His reputation as an exceptional artist grew rapidly, leading him to be published extensively throughout his career. This remarkable print from Liszt Collection allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Conca's mastery firsthand while providing a glimpse into new research surrounding this extraordinary artwork.
