Landscape is a beautiful black and white etching and aquatint on paper, realized in 1962 by the Italian artist Fiorella Diamantini (Cingoli, 1931-2019). Signed and dated in pencil on the lower right margin and with the autograph note "Prova di stampa" in pencil on the lower left margin. Our original etching, an artist proof, confirms the artist's love for classic style in the wake of another great artist from the region Marche: Luigi Bartolini. In this original rpint everything is defined by a fabric of lines that thickens for the contours, and it is made rarer for the shadows. She seems to draw her landscapes from absolute white, where the edges of the real irrepressible by a single line are defined by grey backgrounds. A real skilled hand demonstrates a full mastery of the artistic technique and a real suggestive landscape that has something of the geometrical rigor and of the unmaterial of memory. In very good conditions, this is a very touching landscape, a landscape with the typical emotions of the memory places. Fiorella Diamantini was born in Cingoli in 1931 and graduated from the Book School of Urbino and the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. She studied engraving with Leonardo Castellani in Urbino and Mino Maccari in Rome. Since 1958, she has taught in Rome Techniques of Engraving, first assistant of Mino Maccari, then of Arnoldo Ciarrocchi. From 1951, she lived in Rome. In 1980, she moved to Umbria, in Spello. She has been invited to the most important engraving reviews: the Venice Biennale (1956), the Venice Black and White Biennial, the Rome Quadrennial and the national and international exhibitions organized at the National Chalcography of Rome. His works have been presented at the Michel Gallery in Paris, at the Stockholm National Museum, at the National Chalcography of Rome, at the International Rossetti Library in Rome, at the Prandi Library in Reggio Emilia.

Image dimensions: 10.2 x 10.8 cm. Landscape is a black and white etching on paper, realized after 1960 by the Italian artist Renzo Biasion (Treviso, 1914 - Florence, 1996). Hand-signed in pencil on the lower right margin and monogrammed on the reverse and on plate (lower-right corner) This original print represents a natural landscape with a little and peaceful town in the distance (maybe it is Urbino) with a sober language and a delicate sign. With an excellent inking on a straw-yellow background, this contemporary artwork is in excellent conditions, including a cream-colored passepartout, cm 39.8 x 30.2 Renzo Biasion (Treviso, 1914 - Florence, 1996) Born in Treviso in 1914, he moved to Venice where he graduated from the local art school and taught drawing in secondary schools. In 1940, when Italy entered World War II, he fought on the Greek-Albanian front as a second lieutenant in the infantry and began writing a war diary that would then be lost. After the Greek campaign, he was transferred, with the German troops, to Crete. With the announcement of the armistice of 8 September 1943 and the disbanding of the Italian army, he was taken prisoner by the Germans and sent to concentration camps first in the Netherlands, then in Poland and Germany. During his imprisonment, he made drawings of the lager and portraits from life of Italian and German soldiers, he also began writing a prison diary. In 1944, he managed to escape and returned to Italy. After the war, Biasion resumed teaching and exhibited some works in a Venetian art gallery, arousing the appreciation of the poet and essayist Sergio Solmi. The tragic experiences of war and imprisonment are transfused in writings, drawings, paintings and engravings. He also began composing a series of stories, equally inspired by the memories of war, which would give life to Sagapò, a novel that Elio Vittorini had printed in Einaudi's I Gettoni collection in 1953. And it is in Sagapò (in Greek I love you), his most famous literary work, that the Mediterranean film inspired to, directed in 1991 by Gabriele Salvatores, winner of the Oscar for best foreign language film in 1992. There are numerous collaborations as an art and literary critic in periodicals such as Il Verri, Le Vie d'Italia, newspapers: Gazzetta del popolo, Il Resto del Carlino, Corriere d'Informazione. On the weekly paper Oggi, he edited an art column for thirty-five years. Renzo Biasion and the etching: Renzo Biasion's etchings have been made since the 1960s and the dominant features of all his art are visible in them. With a sober language, he represents interiors and landscapes immersed in the silence that is stillness is not solitude. The artist himself writes about the magic art...
