EDITORS COMMENTS
In the hallowed halls of the Royal Society of British Artists (R.B.A.) in London, on the auspicious 25th of May, 1949, a significant cultural event unfolded. The esteemed Italian Modernist painter, Giorgio de Chirico, graced the city with his presence for an exhibition of his works. De Chirico, known for his metaphysical and surrealist paintings, had taken an unexpected turn towards traditionalism, and London was eager to welcome him into their artistic community. The top image captures the artist himself, engrossed in the meticulous process of varnishing his painting, "The Three Graces," at the Suffolk Street Galleries. The serene expression on his face and the focused intensity of his gaze convey the depth of his dedication to his craft. The painting, a beautiful representation of the ancient Greek mythological figures, is a testament to his artistic evolution. The lower image showcases John Copley, the President of the R.B.A., addressing the attendees at the luncheon of welcome. Surrounded by an array of distinguished guests, Copley extends a warm welcome to de Chirico, acknowledging the profound impact his art has had on the international art scene. The occasion marked a significant moment in the history of British art, as the city embraced the innovative and thought-provoking works of this esteemed Italian painter. This moment in time is a poignant reminder of the power of art to transcend borders and bring people together in appreciation of the human spirit and creative expression. The exhibition at the Royal Society of British Artists served as a testament to the enduring allure of Giorgio de Chirico's art and his lasting impact on the world of modern art.
