EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Portrait of G. B. Piranesi in imitation of an antique bust" created by Francesco Polanzani in the 18th century. The portrait, part of Giambattista Piranesi's opus titled "Various Works of Architecture, perspectives, grotesques, and antiquities" pays homage to the renowned Italian architect himself. In this striking image, we see a beautifully sculpted bust capturing the likeness of Giovanni Battista Piranesi. The intricate details etched into the marble-like surface bring out his strong features and intellectual aura. With its masterful craftsmanship, this artwork exemplifies the talent and skill possessed by both Polanzani as an engraver and Piranesi as an architect. The photograph transports us back to a time when artistry was revered and celebrated. It serves as a testament to Italy's rich cultural heritage during the eighteenth century. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how art can immortalize individuals like Piranesi who have left an indelible mark on their respective fields. Displayed within the Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this portrait stands as a memorial to one man's contribution to architecture and design. Its presence evokes admiration for those who dedicate their lives to artistic pursuits while also serving as a reminder that great works transcend time itself. Francesco Polanzani's photographic representation captures not only the physicality but also the essence of Giovanni Battista Piranesi
