EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork titled "Male and Female Faun with Cornucopia" by Italian Venetian painter and printmaker Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Created in the mid-18th century, this pen with wash on paper piece is a testament to Tiepolo's immense talent and versatility as an artist. The image depicts a male and female faun standing side by side, holding a cornucopia overflowing with abundance. The intricate details of their features, clothing, and the mythical creature itself are brought to life through Tiepolo's masterful strokes. Originally part of the esteemed collection of the Horne Foundation in Florence, Italy, this artwork exemplifies Tiepolo's widespread recognition during his lifetime. Known for his frescoes adorning churches and palaces across Italy, Germany, and Spain, he was also elected President of the Academy of Padua. Tiepolo's artistic prowess extended beyond large-scale works as he excelled in etchings and oil paintings too. His contributions to art history have solidified him as one of the most important artists of his time. This particular illustration comes from "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo". Volume I by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln published in 1928. The black-and-white rendition adds depth to the composition while preserving its timeless beauty. As we admire this remarkable print today, we can appreciate both Tiepolo's skillful execution and his ability to capture mythological themes that continue to captivate audiences centuries later.
