About the Item
Laurent Schkolnyk created this original mezzotint, L' Anais that is signed, titled and numbered #22 in an edition of 30. Since the fruit was so perishable, it became a symbol of luxury, nobility, and wealth throughout Europe. A single pineapple could fetch a fortune. Thus, the host who was able to present freshly cut pineapple to his or her guests was the one with money, power, and connections.
Schkolnyk was born in Paris, France in 1953 and currently resides in Nantes. He studied drawing and etching at the Beaux Art School in Nantes, France, and later studied with Professor Guimezanes – learning the details of the mezzotint technique.
Schkolnyk is a master of three-color mezzotint prints. He creates three different mezzotint plates and then prints each one using a primary color. These transparent colors interact with each other creating a full spectrum of colors from white to bright red and velvet black. Whether the impression is printed in one color or multi-colors the final product is amazingly rich.
Laurent Schkolnyk has had single-artist exhibitions in Paris, France; Tokyo, Japan; San Francisco, CA; & Seattle, WA. His work has been included in numerous group exhibitions in France, the United States, and Asia.
