About the Item

Impressive Italian hand-colored classic motif print depicting lions, birds, griffins, swans, ruins, putti and strongmen. Raffaello Sanzio d'Urbino, also known as Raphael, designed the decorative elements of the Loggia di Raffaello in the Vatican. The Loggia is an open-sided vaulted gallery where these designs were painted. Giovanni Volpato, a skilled engraver, and Giovanni Ottaviani, another artist, produced a series of engravings based on Raphael's designs, which were published as "Logge di Rafaele nel Vaticano". This collection of prints became influential in shaping Neoclassical taste and popularized the "grotesque" style. Raphael designed the decorative elements within the Loggia, which included arches, vaults, pilasters, and doorways. These designs were frescoed onto the walls and ceiling. Giovanni Volpato and Giovanni Ottaviani, both engravers, were given the task of reproducing Raphael's designs in a series of engravings. The engravings were compiled into a book titled "Logge di Rafaele nel Vaticano", which documented the ornamental decorations of the Loggia in detail This narrow artwork has been professionally framed in a gold leaf wood frame and would wonderful on a narrow wall needing a statement piece.

Mid-18th Century Indian Court Painting of Krishna and Radha, Gouache with Gold
Located in Middleburg, VA
A superbly detailed mid-18th-century Indian miniature court painting, executed in gouache heightened with gold on handmade paper. Originating from Rajasthan circa 1760, this exquisite artwork captures a serene palace scene featuring the Hindu deity Krishna with Radha and accompanying Gopis in a lush, architectural setting. The composition is rich in symbolism, narrative depth, and emotional subtlety, hallmarks of classical Rajput painting. The figures are adorned with traditional garments, rendered in delicate pastel tones with intricate patterns and gilt accents. The architectural elements, marble pavilions, domes, carved screens, and floral gardens, are meticulously executed, offering a vivid impression of royal leisure and divine romance. Set against a tree-lined courtyard with peacocks and floral motifs, the visual rhythm is both vibrant and harmonious. The painting is professionally mounted in a deep tan linen mat and presented in an elegant gold-gilt frame with black detailing, complementing the composition's refined warmth and historic gravitas. A rare and captivating example of classical Indian court painting...
