Tree of Dreamy Constellations. Ferdinand De Filippi (19

About the Item

Tree of Dreamy Constellations. Signed in reverse: Ferdinando De Filippi (born 1940, Lecce, Italy) Tree of Dreamy Constellations is a fascinating painting created in a calligraphic monochromatic style, where every detail blends seamlessly with the frame. The artwork features a tree with intricate foliage, revealing surreal details such as two twin faces at the center, a lion, a flying horse ( Pegasus) and a bird beneath it. The frame, in a vibrant color between blue and purple, includes splashes of color reminiscent of the dripping style of pop art. This contrast between the organic nature of the tree and the vibrancy of the frame creates a unique and evocative atmosphere. Monochromatic technique on paper, applied on canvas. Calligraphically refined drawing created with pale red ink. Dimensions with frame: cm 67x53 Dimensions without frame: 48.5 x 34 cm Artist's biography: Fernando De Filippi is an Italian painter aClive in North Italy: Milan and Verona.

  • Moses Strikes the Water from the Rock. XVII cent. Dutch school.
    Located in Firenze, IT
    Moses Strikes Water from the Rock Dutch school, XVII century. Workshop of Jacob de Wet (Haarlem, 1610-1675). Technique: Oil on oak wood panel, composed of 3 horizontal panels. In this evocative work, Moses stands in a cave, gathering the Israelites. There was no water to drink or for their cattle. The people were discontented in the desert. But Moses and Aaron listened to the voice of God. With Aaron’s staff, Moses struck the rock, and water gushed forth abundantly, quenching their thirst. Jacob de Wet’s workshop specializes in subjects from the Old and New Testaments. The recognizable rectangular format, simple compositions, and clear narratives define his style. The interplay of light and shadow, reminiscent of Rembrandt, adds timeless allure. The characters’ costumes, with their large hats and turbans...
