About the Item
Smoking a cigarette is an original drawing on paper, realized around the Seventies by the great Italian artist and journalist, Mino Maccari (Siena, 1898 - 1989).
Charcoal and watercolour drawing on laid paper, watermarked "P. M. Fabriano" and ivory-colored paper.
Signed "Maccari" in pencil on the lower right margin.
With the incredible touch of the illustrator of Il Selvaggio, this contemporray artwork depicts a male portrait: a man looking straight at the viewer is smoking a cigarette, portrait in a moment of relaxation or reflection. Thanks to this portrait we discover an unpublished, serious Mino Maccari, a great draftsman.
Furthermore, on the same sheet, on the back there is a second male portrait, in pencil, sketched.
This original Maccari’s drawing, in perfect condition, surely could enrich your private collectiuon with a Italian touch and elegance!
Mino Maccari (Siena, 1898 – Rome, 1989)
Mino Maccari was a popular Italian painter and engraver with a caustic personality, called in 1924 by Angiolo Bencini to collaborate as illustrator for the magazine Il Selvaggio, an admittedly intransigent fascist, revolutionary and anti-bourgeois magazine. Here Maccari published his first engravings. and after he took over the direction of the Savage which he held until 1942.
In 1959, he became the director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome; in 1963, he won Antonio Feltrinelli's prize for painting and became president of the San Luca Academy in 1962. In the same year of one of the biggest Italian accademic honour, Maccari managed to obtain a personal exhibition at Gallery 63 in New York.
His production of drawings, watercolors, tempera, lithographs etc. is exhausted, sometimes in collaboration with prestigious publishing houses (Strapaese, Il selvaggio), of satirical, political or erotic subject matters.
