EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning design for a ceiling-painting in Austria, dating back to 1928. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, but its origins can be traced back to the last third of the 17th century and the talented artist Egidius Schor. Born in Innsbruck in 1627, Schor traveled to Rome around 1645 and later settled permanently in Tyrol. Although he primarily resided in Innsbruck, his work frequently took him across Austria and Bavaria. The image depicts an intricate architectural feature adorned with angelic cherubs known as amorini. This baroque-era artwork exudes elegance and grandeur through its ornate patterns and neoclassical influences. The lithograph captures every detail of this decorative painting, showcasing Schor's mastery of color and design. This particular print is Plate XCIII, figure 186 from "An Encyclopaedia of Colour Decoration from the Earliest Times to the Middle of the XIXth Century" accompanied by explanatory text written by Helmuth Bossert. Published by Ernst Wasmuth Ltd. Berlin in 1928, it serves as a valuable resource for those interested in art history and interior decoration. With its rich historical significance and artistic beauty, this print transports viewers into a world where craftsmanship meets imagination. It offers a glimpse into Austrian artistry during the baroque era while highlighting Egidius Schor's contributions to Tyrolese churches' decorative paintings. A true testament to timeless creativity that continues to inspire even today.
