Old World Print Shop - Quality Facsimilies
Current Gallery: giuseppe_arcimboldo ( piece)
This gallery contains high quality facsimiles of Giuseppe Arcimbodo's astonishing work. If you have a flair for the grotesque and extremely unusual you will enjoy this series. Giuseppe Arcimboldo (also spelled Archimboldi; 1527 - July 11, 1593) was an Italian painter best known for creating imaginative portrait heads made entirely of such objects as fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish, and books — that is, he painted representations of these objects on the canvas arranged in such a way that the whole collection of objects formed a recognizable likeness of the portrait subject. Arcimboldo's talent has never been surpassed and to this day his work is considered a benchmark. As a paper choice for this gallery I would recommend textured Fine Art papers like Hahnemühle's Torchon or a Matte Canvas. These high quality substrates provide an underlying texture for the crackles and signs of age these facsimiles exhibit, remaining truthful to the originals exhibited in the Musée du Louvre and private collections. The images in this gallery are photographic reproduction of an original two-dimensional work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain since the copyright has expired.
