About the Item

Tobie et l'Ange (Tobias and the angel) is a painting made by Evelyne Ballestra, a French contemporary artist. This colorful expressionist painting is inspired from an eponym altar painting of the Italian Renaissance painter Andrea del Verrocchio. Leonardo da Vinci, who was a member of Verrocchio's studio, may have painted some part of this work. Ballestra expresses a unique movement in each painting with a very subtle sensuality and a juxtaposition of colors to reveal light and shadows, creating a synergy between the piece and the viewer. She incorporates colorful narratives and cultural innuendos that are inspired from her travels around the world, especially Egypt, Latin America and the Seychelles. She attempts to link the human beings and the universe through her pictorial expression which is connected to the mineral, vegetal and animal kingdom. Since 1974, Ballestra has exhibited in over 25 major group and solo exhibitions throughout Europe, Asia and the United States. Dimensions: H. 38 in. x W. 63 in.
