Francesco Zuccarelli "Fishing Scene in a Landscape" Engraving 18th Century
By Francesco Zuccarelli
Located in Beuzevillette, FR
This magnificent engraving depicts a fishing scene in the middle of a landscape with lush vegetation. In the foreground of this scene is a man standing fishing. At his feet a young woman and a child are looking at the water. Further back on the right, there is another fishing scene, this time with two men. The whole is immersed in nature. In the background is a shepherd with a herd of cattle.
This scene was first painted by Francesco Zuccarelli. He was an 18th century painter and engraver. He began his training in Rome and then in Florence as a figure painter. Alter He moved to Venice. He was noticed for his talent in the art of landscape. He benefited from the protection of the English consul Joseph Smith, for whom he produced numerous works.

Pair of Capistrano Mexican Folk Art Sculptures Attributed to Gemma Taccogna
Located in Pasadena, CA
Capistrano Gemma Taccogna, a Mexican artist of Italian descent, left a distinctive mark in folk art with her mastery of papier-mâché for the small one, and of ceramic for the big one, which she transformed into an illusion of porcelain. Her style is immediately recognizable: faces with clean features, large, stylized eyes outlined in black, and a playful approach to form.
These two vases, attributed to Taccogna, evoke Russian dolls known as Matryoshkas, due to the way the faces are painted, associated with the archetype of the mother of a large family, a symbol of motherhood and fertility.
The larger one, a mix of ceramics and papier-mâché, and the smaller one, entirely made of papier-mâché, share this common aesthetic, reinforced by generous, solid shapes. Their gazes seem to observe without truly concentrating, as if absorbed in a distant thought. This lack of focus gives them a presence that is both peaceful and enigmatic, suspended between wakefulness and dream.
The relief necklaces, applied with a deliberately naïve touch, add a sculptural dimension to the whole. The matte, textured material contrasts with the porcelain-like visual effect. One of the vases is signed "Bunny Price" and dated 1964, while the other remains anonymous. However, their attribution is unquestionable.
Presented together, these vases belong to the movement of the Mexican craft...

Gerard Ter Borch Genre Scene "The Two Drinkers" Engraving 18th Century
By Gerard ter Borch the Younger
Located in Beuzevillette, FR
Humorous engraving typical of Flemish representations of the 18th century, representing two seated drinkers . We can see a woman with a glass in her left hand and a carafe in her right, while a man who probably drunk sleeps on the table.
Beautiful achievement typical of the Flemish school of the 17th century.
Gerard ter Borch - or Terburg - also known as "the young man" was born in 1617 in Zwolle near Amsterdam and died in 1681 in Deventer. He worked as a genre painter and portraitist and was very active especially in Münster and Amsterdam.
He discovered his talent for drawing at the age of eight and became a pupil of his father Gerard ter Borch, known as "the old man". The Dutch painter Hendrick Avercamp supported Terburg. He studied with Pieter de Molyn (Dutch painter, draughtsman, engraver and publisher) for three years (1632-1635). He travelled extensively between London, Germany, France and Italy. He in turn became the master of his pupil Caspar Netscher...
