Floral Portrait with Tulip on Green Background - 25 Limited Edition Dibond Print
Located in FISTERRA, ES
"Floral Portrait with Tulip on Green Background" is an original limited edition high-quality Dibond direct UV Print of the Natasha Lelenco`s artwork titled "Scatsong". This piece, like the entire "Fetishes" series, is inspired by the idea of biophilia and the belief that, according to the artist, humanity must be repositioned as just one part of nature rather than its center. Based on Natasha Lelenco's original acrylic on canvas artwork created in 2021, each print, numbered 25 of 25, captures a vibrant fusion of floral elements and anthropomorphic forms. The result is a visually striking and emotionally resonant piece. It is worth noting that the original artwork from which this limited edition print is derived is still available and can be purchased on 1stdibs. Lelenco has subtly hand-finished each print, sometimes adding small details or enhancing the background colors. The prints are varnished, signed, and numbered on the back, and come ready to hang with a simple system that gives the impression of the artwork floating on the wall. Customers also have the option to frame it if they prefer. The artwork presents a striking silhouette composed of lush green leaves, a pink tulip, and other floral elements, set against a vivid green background. This combination of vibrant colors and intricate details showcases Lelenco's talent for transforming natural elements into extraordinary compositions, inviting viewers to explore the deeper connections between nature and human identity. The high-quality Dibond direct UV Print, finished and varnished by the artist herself, ensures durability and color quality, making this piece a lasting and valuable addition to any art collection. This edition is part of the "Fetiches" series, created by Lelenco since 2021, designed to work individually or as part of multiple panels with other pieces from the same series. Natasha Lelenco's "Fetiches" series blends portraiture and anthropomorphic forms through a meticulous accumulation of elements. These components intertwine with nuanced thematic exploration, touching upon both kitsch and popular iconography, while delving into the inseparable connection between humanity and the broader living community. Drawing from her personal biography, Lelenco constructs a dialogue between memory and imagery. Through a skillful process, she resurrects fragments of her past to craft fresh narratives that challenge conventional perceptions of existence. This narrative depth, coupled with psychological complexity, echoes classical influences, seamlessly bridging the gap between Renaissance portraiture and contemporary expression. Notably, Lelenco's "Fetiches" series reflects the artistic echoes of Italian painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo.

Woodpeckers, Ceylonese Pygmy: A 19th C. Gould Hand-colored Lithograph
Located in Alamo, CA
This is a hand-colored folio sized lithograph entitled "Iyngipicus Gymnophthalamus" (Ceylonese Pygmy Woodpecker) by John Gould from his monograph "The Birds of Asia", published in London in 1850-1883. The print, which was drawn by Gould and W. Hart and lithographed by Hullmandel and Walton, depicts two striped brown and ivory-colored woodpeckers with white and black on their heads. One is perched on a tree limb with pea green-colored leaves and the other on a round rose, brown-colored fruit. Both are pecking at fruit. This beautiful Gould hand-colored woodpecker lithograph measures 21" x 14.13". There is minimal faint focal discoloration in the lower margin. It is otherwise in excellent condition. The original text page is included with a round blindstamp in the right lower corner. There are several other unframed Gould woodpecker and other bird lithographs available via our 1stdibs storefront. Two or more of these would make an attractive display grouping.

The Deer, 1942 (Histoire Naturelle - Textes de Buffon, B.336)
Located in Greenwich, CT
The Deer is an aquatint and drypoint print on chine from one of the deluxe copies of Picasso's 1942 Histoire Naturelle - Textes de Buffon series. The image size is 10.5 x 8.15 inches, unsigned as issued, and framed in a contemporary silver and gray moulding. One of about 36 prints that exist with Picasso's remarqued title in French, from the edition of 262 (there were 226 portfolios, some with additional sets on varying papers). Catalogue - Cramer #37 The exceptional etchings from Picasso’s Histoire Naturelle – Textes de Buffon are a masterful combination of sugar-lift aquatint and drypoint, showcasing a full range of gray tonalities. The etchings of animals, birds and insects are considered some of the most beautiful and most unusual examples of Picasso’s graphic work. Roger Lacourière, Picasso’s master printer, pulled the prints for each etching between 1939-1942. It was Lacourière who taught Picasso the sugar-lift aquatint technique which allowed him to mimic the effect of brushstrokes in these etched images. Picasso first explored the technique in his plates for the Vollard Suite, but it was in the creation of the Buffon images that he fully realized its stunning, painterly potential. For the edition, 226 portfolios were produced with the first thirty-six counting as deluxe compilations. These rare deluxe sets were on diverse papers (chine, japon or vergé ancien) and each included a complete additional suite showing Picasso’s title remarques along the bottom. As such, the remarqued versions of the prints are quite rare with just thirty-six of each produced for the edition (with the exception of The Wolf which is never remarqued – the image always fills the entire etching plate). These prints are based on the writings of French naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, who extensively documented the natural world in his monumental work Histoire Naturelle. Picasso’s association with the project to illustrate parts of the Buffon came during a tumultuous time in European history – the prelude to, and early years of, World War II. As the continent was ravaged, Picasso lived through the disaster in Paris, which the Germans occupied in 1940. These prints could be seen as a political statement – Picasso channeling his artistic expression into a form of resistance art...

Located in Middletown, NY
Four plates from The Wondrous Transformation of Caterpillars and their Strange Diet of Flowers. “Wolfsmelk Rupsen;" “Wolfsmilch, Raupe und Schmetterling" Amsterdam: J F Bernard, 1730. Each an engraving with hand coloring in watercolor and gouache printed on one sheet of watermarked Honig cream laid paper, each measures 6 1/4 x 5 inches (157 x 121 mm), sheet measures 20 5/8 x 14 inches (522 x 355 mm), full margins. With handling creases in the lower right sheet quadrant, as well as minor, loose cockling, otherwise in very good condition. The colors are superb with exceptionally fresh and bright saturation. Engraved between 1679 and 1683, printed 1730. Plates included: LIV, LV, LVI, & LVII. MARIA SIBYLLA MERIAN was one of the most highly respected entomologists of the 17th century, and remains today one of the field's most significant figures. A German-born naturalist and scientific illustrator, she reared herself on the study of caterpillars, and made tremendous contributions to the knowledge of the life cycles of numerous species. Until her detailed and careful study of the process of metamorphosis it was thought that insects were "born of mud," through spontaneous generation. Trained as a miniature painter by her stepfather, she published her first book of illustrations in 1675, at the age of 28. In 1679, Merian published the first volume of the two-volume series on caterpillars, The Wondrous Transformation of Caterpillars and their Strange Diet of Flowers; the second volume followed in 1683. Each volume contained 50 plates that she engraved and etched. In 1699, Merian traveled to Dutch Guiana...
