About the Item
Dolori Sacrum or Mass Grief by Henry de Waroquier (after) shows a Christ like face in black red blue and white. The interpretation could be seen as blood running down the face which in fact looks peaceful but gives the viewer a powerful feeling of torture and pain simply by the artists use of color and design. An extremely bold image. One of 12 wood engravings from the portfolio Estampes by Robert Rey, 1950. Edited by L'Image Litteraire, Nice/Rafael and Finelli-Feugere, New York and printed by Gerard Angiolini, Paris. Rey was a professor of History of Art in the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in France. A rare and important work by some of the most important 20th century artists, the complete portfolio includes 12 wood engravings with pochoir enhancements and an essay about each artist, a title page, an introduction by professor Rey, table of contents and text. Each print is hand signed and numbered by the artist (46/150) and countersigned by Robert Rey. The participating artists are Braque, Chagall, Desnoyer, Dufy, Laurencin, Matisse, Picasso, Utrillo, Van Dongen, Vlaminck and Waroquier. There is an extra folder containing 31 decompositions of the Marc Chagall print. Text and prints are all in very good condition with very light scattered foxing throughout some of the sheets.

Henry de Waroquier
Henry de Waroquier, painter, sculptor and printmaker, was born in Paris in 1881. He studied in Paris at the School of Decorative Arts, and privately with the architect Charles Genuys and the painter and scholar Louis Ménard. In 1903, he was named professor of composition at the Estienne School of Art and Industry in Paris. He often traveled to Venice and did a number of paintings, drawings and etchings of that city. de Waroquier exhibited prominently in the annual Salon exhibitions in Paris, most notably in the Salon d’Automne, of which he eventually became president, and in the Salon des Tuilleries and the Salon des Artistes Indépendants. He had many one-man shows in Paris and elsewhere. In 1946, the museum in Zurich mounted an extensive retrospective of his work, and in 1952 the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris held an exhibition of fifty of his sculptures. In 1955, the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris put on an exhibition of his engravings. De Waroquier’s work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC and the Museum of the 1930s in Boulgone-Billancourt.

Paper size 16.25 x 13.75 image 7 x 6.75
Nastasio was born in Milan in 1934. In 1952 he followed the “free school of the nude” led by Aldo Salvatori. In 1960 he attended the Atelier of Giorgio Upilio where Giacometti, Lam, Fontana, De Chirico worked and where he had the opportunity to study the themes of the inspiring myths. He worked at the MAF foundry with the master Tullio Figini who shared the secrets of the lost wax Renaissance fusion and where he met the masters Crocetti, Manfrini, Manzu , Minguzzi, Fabbri,. He then moved on to Quinto de Stampi at the De Andreis foundry where Marino Marini, Pomodoro, Rudy Wach, Strebelle, Negri and Rosental operated. A regular reader of the great sapienzal texts of antiquity, he trained in particular on the Bible which he illustrated with woodcuts, aquatints, etchings and linocuts, especially the Song of Songs, the book of Ecclesiastes and several pages of the Gospels He also drew his inspiration from the philosophical-religious tradition of the Eastern world through the reading of Rig-Veda, Upanisad and the Matnavi of Rumi. In 1966-67 he obtained the chair at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera and for thirty years he devoted himself to the teaching of Art Education in various schools.
Nastasio created works both pictorial and plastic in collaboration with famous architects such as: Figini and Pollini, De Carli, Gardella, Faranda, Selleri, Ponti. His great talent soon came to the attention of various art dealers: first Max G...
