About the Item
Mixed technique on canvas. On verso present signature, title, date and dedication.
Paolo Baratella, an artist from Ferrara who recently passed away, developed his art by composing vast pictorial cycles inspired by contemporary subjects; therefore, we have series of works by him gathered under significant titles.
Since the fmid 1980s and in the 2000s, its scenic apparatuses became more enriched with iconographic cultural, pictorial and literal references. In particular, Baratella pays more attention to the iconography of art, philosophy and history.
In this work, the artist presents portraits of the two supreme Greek philosophers (taken from their depictions traditional classics) and blurs them into a pink-blue color scheme.
The two individual canvases are placed side by side within a carved wooden frame, on whose two horizontal crosspieces are engraved the words "Timaeus" a work written by Plato, and "Ethics" a recurring theme in Aristotelian philosophy.
