Letters written during a period of growing success for Santomaso who in 1954 won the First Prize for Italian Painting, in 1956 the Graziano Prize from the Galleria del Naviglio in Milan and the Marzotto Prize at the Valdagno International Contemporary Painting Exhibition in 1958.
Nesto Jacometti (Locarno, 1898- 1973)
Nesto Jacometti is still today a fascinating figure of the Locano and International cultural scene of the last century. Collector and editor of graphic art, he was the promoter of two important editorial projects and adventures: the Guilde Internationale de la Gravure and L’Oeuvre Gravée
Born in Locarno at the end of the 19th century, at the age of 30 he left Ticino to move to Paris and immerse himself in the bohemian atmosphere of Montparnasse. The war forces him to return to Switzerland, to Geneva, where he works in the journalistic field and he knows figures as Albert Skira and Pierre Cailler. With the latter one a collaboration born and resulted, in 1949, in a printing guild: an edition of etchings and lithographs destined for a wide circulation of the Paris School. During all his life, Jacometti collaborates and involves artists such as Rufino Tamayo and Jean Lurçat, Antoni Clavé, Zao Wou-Ki, Alfred Manessier, Gustave Singier and Zoran Music. He was awarded at the Venice Biennale in 1953, with the Critics' Grand Prix.In 1955 Jacometti engaged in the new publishing initiative, L'Oeuvre Gravée, calling new prestigious names on the Parisian art scene. Many artists owe their initiation to the art of engraving to him: Marino Marini, Massimo Campigli, Zao Wou-Ki, Johnny Friedlaender, Corneille, Max Ernst and Alberto Magnelli.

Giuseppe Santomaso
Giuseppe Santomaso was born in Venice on September 26, 1907. He studied at the Accademia Di Belle Arti from 1932 to 1934. In 1938 he began his work in graphic design. In 1939, the artist traveled to Paris on the occasion of his first solo exhibition at the Rive Gauche Galerie. Santomaso participates in the Quadrennial of Rome in 1943 and performs illustrations for Paul Eluard. In 1946, he is a founding member of the anti-fascist artists "Organization Nuova Secessione Artistica Italiana-Fronte Nuovo Delle Arti" in Venice. From 1948, Santomaso often participated in the Venice Biennial, where he was awarded the Venice Municipality Prize in 1948. He received the Graziano Prize of the Galleria del Naviglio in Milan in 1956 and the Marzotto Prize for the Mostra Internazionale Di Pittura Contemporanea de Valdagno in 1958, among other awards. Santomaso taught at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice from 1957 to 1975. His first exhibition in the United States was in 1957 at the Grace Borgenicht Gallery in New York.

Map of Palestine or Judea, Illustrating the History of the New Testament
By Rev. Nathan B. Rogers
Located in New York, NY
Pen and ink on paper, laid down on canvas, mounted to wooden scroll bars
Signed and dated lower right: “Drawn by N. B. Rogers August. 1843”
Inscribed with an ownership inscription on the verso: Rev. E. D. Daniels, Palmer, Mass.
Provenance:
Rev. Eugene Davidson Daniels, Palmer, Massachusetts, 1871
This extraordinary manuscript map is a rare survivor of the devotional and educational culture of New England in the first half of the nineteenth century. Although at first glance resembling a large-scale engraving or printed publication, this precisely rendered wall map was entirely drawn by hand, the product of meticulous research by a minister working in isolation in rural Maine. The map shows New Testament era cities, towns, tribal areas, and political borders as well as physical features such as rivers, lakes, mountains, and hills (indicated by half-tone cross-hatching). On to this geographically accurate rendering of the Holy Land, Rogers has located and inscribed significant locales mentioned in the Gospels and has annotated these places with relevant citations from the Bible. He further records these by plotting the travels of Jesus on what resemble a series of trails across the Holy Land. Each is distinguished by a different pattern of dots and dashes – correlated to an explanatory table at the lower right. From this we know that these lines document the “Flight into Egypt and return,” “Travels of Christ from Nazareth to Jerusalem and return,” “Travels from the commencement of his Ministry to the first Passover,” “Travels from the first and the second Passover,” “Travels from Jerusalem to Galilee after the 2nd Passover,” and “Travels from the third Passover to the Crucifixion.”
