EDITORS COMMENTS
Andrea di Lione's Antique Carved Marble Candelabra Base, dated between 1642/44 and 1647/51, is a stunning example of Baroque era artistry. This pen and ink drawing and brown wash over graphite on cream laid paper laid down on off white laid paper, preserved at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases the intricate carving techniques of the 17th century Italian artist. The candelabra base, adorned with female figures and various trees and plants, is depicted in black and white, adding to its antique and timeless appeal. The base, which could have once supported a candelabrum, is intricately hand carved with detailed designs of women, trees, and plants. The female figures, depicted with grace and elegance, are delicately carved, their faces expressing a sense of tranquility and beauty. The trees and plants, with their intricate branches and leaves, add a touch of nature to the piece, enhancing its organic and earthy feel. The drawing, which is part of the Art Institute of Chicago's impressive collection of prints and drawings, is a testament to the skill and artistry of Andrea di Lione. The use of pen and ink, along with brown wash, adds depth and texture to the drawing, bringing the intricate carvings to life. The drawing also serves as a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Italy during the Baroque era. The Antique Carved Marble Candelabra Base is not only a beautiful work of art, but also a historical artifact, providing a glimpse into the past and the artistic traditions of the time. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, particularly the Baroque era, and a reminder of the timeless beauty and elegance of hand-carved marble.
