This exquisite print, entitled "ROMA - CASTEL SAINT ANGELO" by the renowned artist Antonio Carbonati, captures the beauty and grandeur of Rome's iconic cityscape. The black and white woodblock print on fine laid paper measures 11.5 inches in height and 7.5 inches in width, and is signed by the artist himself.
The print, produced circa 1940, depicts a stunning view of the Castel Sant'Angelo, one of Rome's most famous landmarks. This licensed reprint is a perfect addition to any collection, with its realism style and emphasis on cityscapes.
It is probably circa 1945 and is printed upon fine wove paper. It belongs to Carbonati's last great creative period, the years immediately following the end of World War II. It is a fine, original example of the etched art created by the Italian artist, Antonio Carbonati.
About the Artist (source: www.artoftheprint.com): Antonio Carbonati: Now firmly placed in the front rank of early twentieth century Italian art, Antonio Carbonati's first published etchings date from 1916. During the following three years he created a number of etchings (most dealing with Rome) which brought him an enthusiastic reception from the public. Unlike so much art in Italy at this time, these were not traditional or tourist vies, but thoroughly modern images, indicative of Antonio Carbonati's very unique style and contemporary concerns.
Between 1920 and 1925, Antonio Carbonati lived and worked in Paris. French recognition of Carbonati's talent was swift and he became a juried member of the Salon d'Automne (1923) and won the prestigious gold medal at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs, Paris (1925).
Antonio Carbonati then returned to Rome and continued to create his own very distinctive cityscapes. Il Tevere col Ponte e Castel Sant' Angelo - Roma (The Tiber River with the Bridge and Castel Sant' Angelo - Rome ) belongs to the artist's last great creative period, the years immediately following the end of World War II.
