EDITORS COMMENTS
Aphorismi Politici: Trompe l'Oeil with Posted Notices and Prints," an exquisite masterpiece by Martin Cerulli, dates back to the 18th century and is currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago. This artwork, created between 1735 and 1765, is a prime example of the artist's exceptional skill in brush drawing, pen and ink, and watercolor techniques. The intriguing composition presents a trompe l'oeil scene, where the illusion of three-dimensionality is skillfully created on a two-dimensional surface. The artwork features a collection of notices and prints, seemingly pinned to the wall and scattered on the table, creating an air of communication and exchange of information. The grey and grey-toned ivory laid paper, upon which the artwork is executed, adds to the antique and historic feel. The title "Aphorismi Politici" suggests a connection to political commentary or satire, further enhancing the intrigue surrounding this artwork. The scene invites viewers to ponder the role of communication and information dissemination in the eighteenth century, as well as the significance of notices and prints as important documents of the time. Cerulli's use of gouache and graphite, expertly layered over each other, adds depth and texture to the artwork, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and the evolution of artistic techniques. The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to preserve and exhibit this remarkable artwork, allowing future generations to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of Martin Cerulli's masterful creation.
