EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite 17th-century ceiling decoration featuring allegorical figures. Created by the talented Michel Corneille the Elder, a French artist from Orleans, this masterpiece exemplifies his exceptional skill and artistic vision. Trained in the esteemed studio of Simon Vouet, Corneille was one of the twelve original members of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, founded in 1648. The black chalk drawing on beige paper is meticulously detailed and expertly executed. The figures are beautifully heightened with white accents, adding depth and dimension to their graceful forms. Measuring approximately 11 3/8 x 15 15/16 inches (289 x 405 cm), this artwork would have adorned churches and private homes during its time. Each allegorical figure represents a symbolic concept or idea, inviting viewers to contemplate deeper meanings within the composition. The delicate lines and intricate details bring these ethereal beings to life, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. Artokoloro has captured this stunning piece with precision, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty from afar. This print serves as a testament to Corneille's talent as well as Artokoloro's dedication to preserving and sharing remarkable works of art from history.
