Leonardo Castellani Art

Italian, 1896-1984

Leonardo Castellani was an artist and a writer from the Marches who since childhood has experimented with various artistic typologies, from wood carving to painting, sculpture, decoration of public spaces and ceramics. After a while, he dedicated himself to etching with remarkable results and experimented with new chalcographic techniques searching for the newest outcomes. Since 1930, Castellani has taught chalcography at the institute for the illustration and decoration of books. When he started experimenting with chalcographic engraving, Castellani favored mainly landscapes, human figures and still lifes. Between 1928–73, Castellani realized 798 engravings in the smallest circulations. He was also a writer and an editor. The beautiful engraving shells is an artwork that inspires contemporary still lifes by the great painter Giorgio Morandi.

Joan Miró “L’Oiseau du Forgeron” 1963 Signed Etching and Aquatint with Debossing

By Joan Miró

Located in Miami, FL

JOAN MIRÓ (1893–1983) – “L’OISEAU DU FORGERON” Etching and Aquatint in Colors with Debossing on Arches Paper ⚜ Hand Signed and Numbered ⚜ Custom Conservation Frame A POETIC DIALOGUE BETWEEN INDUSTRIAL MATTER AND THE LIFE OF THE BIRD “L’Oiseau du Forgeron”, or “The Blacksmith’s Bird,” is a 1963 etching and aquatint with debossing by Joan Miró, hand signed in pencil lower right and numbered 48 from the limited edition of 75. The work belongs to Miró’s celebrated Forgeron series, in which the artist used aggressive plate biting and physical debossing of the paper to summon the world of the blacksmith’s forge directly onto the printed sheet. Printed in colors on heavy Arches wove paper with the watermark present, the impression was published by Maeght Éditeur, Paris, the central printmaking publisher of Miró’s mature career, and is documented in Jacques Dupin’s Miró Engraver, Vol. II: 1961–1973 (Daniel Lelong Éditeur, Paris, 1989) as plate 363. The composition is built around a bold visual pairing. At its center sits a heavy gray geometric form, rendered through the combined effect of etching, aquatint, and debossing, the latter pressing the contours of the deeply etched plate physically into the paper to create a tactile, sculptural relief that mimics forged industrial iron. The form is perforated with a constellation of small circles that read as rivet holes and is edged with the irregular notches of a blacksmith’s tool...
