Antonio de Felipe Abanderado Offset Lithograph Year: 1993 Size: 39.0 x 39.0 inches Signed in the stone COA provided --------------------------------------- Antonio de Felipe was born in Valencia in 1965. Ever since a very young age he has felt an artistic drive that led him to earn a fine arts degree at the University of Valencia. In 1996 he moved to Madrid where he has his studio. The work of Antonio de Felipe is a constant source of fascination and surprises. It is a great pleasure to witness how the artist’s ingenious world of ideas and his sense of humour are constantly evolving. His subject worlds form a surprising genre blend of striking contrasts, a linking of series characters, classical art and commercialism side by side with contemporary icon worship. Antonio de Felipe has developed his extensive work in different series like, Las Vacas Logotipos and Popsport among others. In the serie Cinemaspop Antonio de Felipe has painted portraits of brilliant actors whose icon status is secure. Two of them are Audrey Hepburn and Greta Garbo, seen against a wide range of backgrounds where the artist pays tribute to the great masters – either Picasso’s brutal Guernica or space figures reminiscent of Miró. As a third, Marilyn Monroe, parts her ruby lips...

This seascape captures a ship ensnared in the relentless grip of a violent squall, paying homage to the tradition of nautical and maritime art of the 18th and 19th centuries. Waves crash with the force of timeless tempests, echoing the dramatic seascapes painted by maritime artists of old. The ship, a lone voyager battling the elements, becomes a poignant symbol in the grand legacy of seafaring tales depicted by the artistic masters who once translated the raw power of the sea onto canvas.

This photograph captures the timeless beauty of an aged 18th-century Italian fresco painting. The artwork features potted orange trees, their vibrant green foliage and citrus fruits providing a striking contrast. Set against the backdrop of an expansive Italian countryside, the landscape unfolds with rolling hills and distant vistas. The significance of the orange trees in the fresco is deeply rooted in the historical context of 18th-century Italy. During this period, the cultivation of citrus fruits, including oranges, became a symbol of prosperity and luxury. Italy, with its favorable climate, was a prime location for cultivating oranges, and their presence in frescoes often represented affluence, abundance, and the beauty of the Italian landscape.

This photograph captures the solemn visage of the biblical figure Elizabeth, known as "Isabel" in Spanish. Once part of a revered church statue, now only her head remains, gazing downward with a sense of contemplation. Elizabeth, a key figure in the Bible, was the mother of John the Baptist and played a crucial role in biblical narratives, particularly in the Visitation when she greeted Mary, the mother of Jesus. The photograph preserves the essence of her biblical importance, depicting the enduring reverence and the spiritual depth associated with this revered figure. The downward gaze suggests a posture of reflection and humility, inviting viewers to contemplate the biblical legacy embodied by the remaining fragment of this once-complete church statue.

Provenance: James Byrnes, Los Angeles (1917-2011) Giusto Le Court was born Josse or Justus de Corte in the Flemish city of Ypres. His father Jean was a sculptor and presumably his earliest training was with him before he entered the studio of Cornelis van Mildert. The young artist was clearly influenced by the dominant Flemish sculptor of the time, Artus Quellinus the Elder, with whom he may have worked on the decoration of the Amsterdam City Hall. Following the lead of many northern artists he travelled to Rome, perhaps more than once, before settling in Venice around 1655. It was there, as one of a colony of expatriate artists, that he made his name as a sculptor. One of his first Venetian commissions was for the monument to Alvise Mocenigo in the Church of San Lazzaro dei Mendicanti, where Le Court sculpted the marble figures of Strength and Justice. He also collaborated with the celebrated architect Baldassare Longhena, most famously for the high altar of Santa Maria della Salute, where he carved the multi-figured altarpiece depicting the Queen of Heaven Expelling the Plague. The present marble sculpture depicts the infant Saint John the Baptist, reclining, wearing his traditional hair-shirt, embracing a lamb, and holding the bottom of his attribute, a reed cross. Attached to his shirt is a baptismal cup, with which he would become associated later in his life. Veneration of the infant Saint John the Baptist was prevalent throughout Italy and images of the saint in childhood—often called “Giovannino,” or little John...
