1948

About the Item

Bet Medhane Alem is a modern artwork realized by Lino Bianchi Barriviera in 1948. Black and white etching. Signed and dated on plate. Plate n.56 (as reported on the higher margin). The artwork is from the series "The monolithic churches of Lalibelà and others in Ethiopia". As reported on the artwork "Drawings, engravings by Lino Bianchi Barrivera from the relief by Elio Zacchia (1939-1947)" Between 1938 and 1939 Lino Bianchi Barriviera participated in a study mission to Ethiopia commissioned by Duke Amedeo of Aosta, from which he made several engravings. Good conditions except some foxings. Lino Bianchi Barriviera  (Barriviera is the maternal surname that he added to the paternal one in 1933), artist, painter and etcher, was born in Montebelluna (Treviso) in 1906 and died in Acilia (Rome) in 1985. After the first years of his youth, he lived in Venice and Florence, settled finally in Rome in 1935, and at the end of the 70’s moved to Acilia. The fame of the artist is mainly linked to his large production, more than 950 plates,  for which he mostly used etchings but also experimented with several other techniques; it has also to be noted that he performed masterfully in other forms of arts, first of all the oil painting, and then wall frescoes and tempera decorations, wood-carving, stained-glass windows, mosaics, ceramics, embossing, stamp engravings and jewel making.

Kent Hagerman, (US Air Force Fairchild C-119, the 'Flying Boxcar')
By Kent Hagerman
Located in New York, NY
While this is probably a military airport, Kent Hagerman still shows it at its futuristic best. Hagerman was an amazing draftsman who managed to get fantastic detail into his work. This is really a portrait of a plane -- the Fairchild C-119. The words 'United States Air Force' on the side of the plane date it to 1947 or later, after the Air Force split from the Army. The design featured the 'twin boom' clearly showing in this etching. Thanks to this feature it was called the Flying Boxcar. About 1100 were built and used until 1955. It was also used by the Chinese Air...
