About the Item

Juventus Football Player, Champions League Final vs Ajax, 1996 - 101 x 72 cm Technique: Charcoal on paper, signed and dated '96 Author: Marco Silombria (Savona, 1936 - Albissola, 2017) Dimensions: 101 cm x 72 cm Provenance: This unique piece comes from the descendants of Marco Silombria, who preserved the remaining works in the artist's studio. A certificate of authenticity is available upon request. This drawing is part of the series created by Marco Silombria to celebrate Juventus' historic victory in the 1996 UEFA Champions League final against Ajax. The artist captures a striking moment of athleticism and dynamism, where the player's inverted pose conveys movement and intensity-an homage to the physical prowess and competitive spirit of Juventus' champions. Silombria's fascination with athletic form is evident, presenting the player's body as a modern embodiment of ancient Greek ideals: sculpted, powerful, and timeless. Through his distinctive style, Silombria transforms the athletes of Juventus into cultural icons, celebrating their role as modern heroes. Signed in the lower right corner "Silombria '96," this large-format work reflects the artist's unique ability to merge contemporary sports with classical artistic traditions. Artist's Biography: Marco Silombria (Savona, 1936 - Albissola, 2017) was an Italian painter, sculptor, and graphic designer. Deeply inspired by Pop Art, Art Deco, and Greek mythology, Silombria's works frequently celebrated athleticism, beauty, and the modern heroism embodied by athletes. His art reimagines sports figures as timeless icons, bridging the gap between contemporary culture and classical ideals. Collection: This drawing is part of a series of 26 works commemorating Juventus' triumph in the 1996 UEFA Champions League, available in three formats: • 3 small (50 x 36 cm) • 9 medium (72 x 50 cm) • 14 large (101 x 72 cm) All works are hand-signed by the artist. The entire collection is available for purchase.

Banana (original drawing on paper)
By David Hockney
Located in Aventura, FL
Original colored crayons and pastel drawing on paper. Hand signed and dated on front by David Hockney. Artwork size 16.75 x 14inches. Frame size approx 27 x 24 inches. Provenance: Annely Juda Fine Art; Richard Gray Gallery. Artwork in excellent condition. All reasonable offers will be considered. About the Artist: David Hockney is one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. Perhaps best known for his serial paintings of swimming pools, portraits of friends, and verdant landscapes, the artist’s oeuvre ranges from collaged photography and opera posters to Cubist-inspired abstractions and plein-air paintings of the English countryside. Often returning to a certain motif again and again, he probes the manifold ways one can see an image or a space. Hockney’s exploration of photography’s effect on painting and everyday life is evinced in his hallmark work A Bigger Splash (1967). “In art, new ways of seeing mean new ways of feeling; you can't divorce the two, as, we are now aware, you cannot have time without space and space without time,” he has explained. Born on July 9, 1937 in Bradford, United Kingdom, Hockney attended the Royal College of Art in London alongside R.B. Kitaj. At school, he studied under both Francis Bacon and Peter Blake, but also credits Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse for influencing his distinctive and varied style. In 1963, the artist traveled to Southern California for the first time and fell in love with the bright sunshine and easygoing lifestyle. Since then, he has alternated living and working between Yorkshire, United Kingdom, and Los Angeles, CA. In November 2018, his 1972 painting...

"Jimi Hendrix original Color Pencil sketch" Fillmore East the very first version
By David Edward Byrd
Located in Southampton, NY
A new coffee table book has just been released titled "Poster Child" The Psychedelic Art & Technicolor Life of David Edward Byrd. This original drawing is featured on page 61 of the book. David Byrd created some of the most memorable Classic Theatre and Rock and Roll images from the 1960s and 70s. David created ALL of the Art for Bill Graham’s Fillmore East, including their Program covers and Rock posters, the art for Jimi Hendrix’s first Fillmore East appearance, The Rolling Stones 1969 World Tour art, The Who’s Performance of Tommy at the New York Metropolitan Opera House and The Fillmore, and The Grateful Dead Swell Dance Concert to name only a few. He also created the poster art for the original location of the 1969 Woodstock music festival . His memorable images were also used for classic Broadway shows like Godspell, Follies and Jesus Christ Superstar to mention only a few. These museum quality drawings are rarely made available for sale, they are not only wonderful rare works of art, but are truly historically important works in the field of Theatre and Rock and Roll collecting. It has been framed with archival double matting. David Byrd's poster art is in many museum collections, including : The Louvre, in Paris, Victoria & Albert in London, The Museum of Modern Art in New York and The Smithsonian in Washington, DC. Featured in this listing is the Original Color pencil Sketch created in 2006 by David Byrd prior to working on the finished painting which we also have available for sale. This drawing created in 2006 is based on David's very first original 1968 drawing for Hendrix's very first Fillmore East concert. It only featured Hendrix, and Bill Graham asked David if he could add the other two members of The Experience, which became the famous Fillmore East orange poster that featured all three members of the Experience. I included and image in this listing of the original pencil drawing from 1968 where you can see Bill requesting all three members to be included in the poster art. In this color rendering, David Byrd indicates two possible color choices for the poster in this sketch by listing the color numbers. He shows one half with one color combination and the other half with a different color combination. That was so that Bill Graham could choose which colors he preferred if the original 1968 poster art was to use this image. A great original color drawing that David Byrd created to show the colors of the first version of the 1968 Hendrix poster...
