EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a long wall adorned with seven exquisite panels, each telling its own unique story. Created by the talented artist Bartoli, Pietro Santi in the 17th century, this artwork measures 16.7x46.2 cm and is now under the kind permission of the Earl of Leicester and the Trustees of the Holkham Estate. The panels are beautifully detailed, featuring delicate black chalk drawings enhanced with pen and brown ink, then colored with watercolor. The narrow frieze below adds an elegant touch to this masterpiece. Let's explore these enchanting panels together: (1 and 7) A striking candelabrum takes center stage in both panels, accompanied by a mysterious half-figure that sparks curiosity. (2) A female figure gracefully holds a dish in her right hand while clutching a jug in her left. Her vibrant red dress contrasts beautifully against her blue overdress. (3) Nature comes alive as we witness a bird standing on lush foliage against a vivid red background. (4) Two women engage in what seems like serving duties; one wears a blue dress with a red mantle while the other adorns herself with a green mantle. Their bare upper bodies add an intriguing element to this scene set on yellow ground. (5) A majestic peacock stands proudly amidst flourishing foliage on an earthy red-brown ground. (6) Lastly, we encounter another female figure draped elegantly in red and yellow fabric—a true testament to Bartoli's mastery of capturing grace through his artistry. Accompanied by small white-on-brown friezes throughout, this Italian old master drawing transports us back to ancient Roman and Greek influences while showcasing Bartoli's exceptional talent for storytelling through his brushstrokes.
