About the Item

Allegory of the four seasons. A pair of engravings. These engravings are framed in white gold covered french frames. From the publication published in Milan in 1782. "Different ornaments, invented, designed and executed by Giocondo Albertolli " (1742-1839) Swiss-Italian architect and decorator. Giocondo Albertolli became famous for the ornamental decorations he executed in the interiors of public and private buildings in Lombardy. It represented the neoclassical style born around 1770, which due to its reaction to the baroque and the rococo was inspired by the rather austere and linear forms of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Later he was a highly regarded teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts, in Milan (better known in the abbreviated form Brera), of which he was a co-founder.

  • Rhodotorulic Acid. Woodcut in colors. Signed.
    By Damien Hirst
    Located in Paris, FR
    HIRST Damien (1965 - ) Rhodotorulic Acid. Woodcut in colors. Signed. Provenance : DTR Modern Gallery, New York. About Damien Hirst (Artist) British artist Damien Hirst is widely considered the enfant terrible of contemporary art. He is the most prominent of the so-called Young British Artists, or YBAs, a group, largely composed of Hirst’s classmates at Goldsmiths, in London, that began exhibiting together in warehouses and factories after 1988 and is known for the use of unconventional materials and “shock tactics.” In the 1990s, Hirst said, “I can’t wait to get into a position to make really bad art and get away with it.” And indeed, he is notorious for piquing critics and baffling the public with such pieces as his signature glass vitrines containing dead sheep or sharks in formaldehyde, and his diamond-encrusted skull, For the Love of God. Working primarily in sculpture, Hirst takes after French modernist master Marcel Duchamp in his use of ready-made objects and materials, which he combines to ironic effect. He often creates in series, as with The Cure (Violet) and The Cure (Turquoise), both from 2014, which are among several pill paintings...
