EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's "Head of an Old Man" from 1755. The head of an elderly, bearded man is turned to the right, revealing a sense of wisdom and experience etched on his face. Created with chalk on paper, this study was intended for the altarpiece titled "The Miracle of the Foot Healed" in Mirano, Italy. Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, an Italian Venetian painter and printmaker, was highly sought after for his frescoes in churches and palaces across Italy, Germany, and Spain. His artistic prowess extended beyond large-scale works as he also excelled in etchings and oil paintings. Widely regarded as one of the most important artists of his time period, Tiepolo's talent earned him recognition as President of the Academy of Padua. This particular artwork was once part of Dr Hans Wendland's collection in Lugano, Switzerland. Its inclusion in Detlev Baron Von Hadeln's book "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" showcases its significance within art history. Through this portrait drawing by Tiepolo, we are invited to contemplate the depth that comes with age and reflect upon the artist's mastery at capturing human emotion through his skilled hand.
