EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a profound moment of devotion. Created by the renowned Italian Venetian painter and printmaker, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, this artwork titled "Man prostrated in prayer" is a study for his famous painting "Angel of the Annunciation". The man depicted in the image is turned to the right, completely prostrated on the ground as he engages in deep prayer. Tiepolo's mastery of chalk on paper brings out every detail of this powerful scene. His ability to capture human emotions and spirituality is evident through the posture and expression of the praying man. As one of the most important artists of his time, Tiepolo was sought after for his frescoes in churches and palaces across Italy, Germany, and Spain. The original drawing is owned by Duque de Luna at Villa Hermosa in Madrid, Spain but can be admired at Staatsgalerie in Stuttgart, Germany. This particular print comes from "The Drawings of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo" volume II by Detlev Baron Von Hadeln published in 1928. Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's work transcends time with its timeless beauty and spiritual depth. This photograph serves as a testament to his artistic genius that continues to inspire art enthusiasts today.
