Acquaforte, puntasecca misure: mm 151 x 228; foglio mm 181 x 280 Pittore e incisore italiano, vicino alla corrente artistica del Verismo e dell'Impressionismo. Frequentò inizialmente lo studio di Giambattista Calò (Barletta 1832 - 1895) e Vincenzo Dattoli (Foggia 1831 -Roma 1899) dipingendo soprattutto la natura dal vero. All'età di quindici anni entrò come allievo all'Accademia di Belle arti di Napoli sotto la guida di Giuseppe Mancinelli (Napoli 1813 – Palazzolo di Castrocielo 1875) ma nel 1863 venne espulso per problemi di disciplina e condotta. Così continuò la sua carriera lontano dal mondo accademico per poi entrare a far parte della Scuola dei Portici che praticava una pittura aderente al vero, attenta alla resa cromatica. Toccò diverse città italiane come Firenze dove frequenta il caffè Michelangelo, nel 1867 giunse a Parigi sotto la protezione del mercante Goupil entrando in contatto con artisti quali Mariano Fortuny (Reus 1838 – Roma 1874) e Leon Gerôme (Vesoul 1824 – Parigi 1904) di cui si disse allievo. Espose le sue opere per diversi anni ai Salon e Degas, nel 1874, lo fece partecipare alla prima esposizione degli impressionisti. Di questi "studiò il taglio e l'impaginazione della pittura giapponese, gli effetti cinematici di Degas e amò le dissolvenze materiche di Monet" (Piceni, 1979, p.23). Egli fu un abile acquafortista e in queste opere mise in risalto, grazie ad un'attenta riflessione intima e ad una continua sperimentazione tecnica, le atmosfere della luce cercando di cogliere l'attimo fuggente di un'espressione o di una posa. Tutte le incisioni appartengono al periodo parigino ed alcune portano la data '73 e '74. Questa stampa fu pubblicata postuma sulla Gazette des Beaux-Arts a settembre del 1913 accompagnata da un articolo dal titolo Une eau-forte inedite de J. De Nittis. Anche in quest'opera l'artista agisce con estrema delicatezza e raffinatezza; la donna è semisdraiata, appoggia il braccio sinistro su un oggetto non identificabile, forse un bracciolo o un cuscino, ha il busto scoperto eburneo quasi invisibile rispetto ai capelli scuri e ai giochi chiaroscurali dell'abito che copre le gambe. Ha lo sguardo fisso verso lo spettatore che rivela naturalezza ma anche imbarazzo. L'intimità della scena è riportata con cura mediante poche linee che definiscono il corpo della donna e un più attento tratteggio nella zona dei capelli e dell'abito. Petrucci afferma che "più che un'incisione sembra una pittura ottenuta con un lavoro sapiente di toni chiari su scuri." Impressione ottima e ben conservata, eccetto minimo foxing diffuso. Ampi margini oltre la battuta del rame. Esemplare in uno stato intermedio fra il II/ III prima dei ritocchi sul mignolo della mano destra.

Per Wikipedia Miriam Constance Beaumont-Vaughan 1901-1979 Better Known By Her Pseudonym Olive Moore Was A Modernist English Writer Best Known For Three Well-Esteemed Novels: Celestial Seraglio 1929 Spleen 1930 And Fugue 1932 And For The Acerbic Essay Collection The Apple Is Bitten Again 1934. She Also Produced An Essay On D.H. Lawrence Entitled Further Reflections On The Death Of A Porcupine Which Was Privately Printed In 1933 And Included In Her Essay Collection. Her Collected Writings Was Published In 1992. Born In Hereford Moore Was Acquainted With The Bloomsbury Literary Circles In London During Her Prolific Years And With The Poet Hugh Mcdiarmid And The Radical London Bookseller And Publisher Charles Lahr. She Briefly Worked For The Daily Sketch. In The Early 1920'S She Married The Sculptor Sava Botzaris 1894-1965. Otherwise Little Is Known About Her Life Beyond A Brief Autobiographic Sketch In 1933. Moore Claimed To Be Working On A Novel Entitled Amazon And Hero: The Drama Of The Greek War For Independence Which Was Never Published. Due To Her Rapid Disappearance From The London Literary Scene The Date And Location Of Her Death Remain Unknown Though She Is Believed To Have Died Around 1970. Moore Has Been Termed "A Cross Between Virginia Woolf And Djuna Barnes But With A More Biting Wit." Her Novels Make Free Use Of Modernist Techniques Such As Stream Of Consciousness In Their Frank Dealings With Issues Of Sexuality And Disability. Though Considered A Highly Talented Experimental Writer Moore's Disappearance And The Rarity Of Published Versions Of Her Texts Until The Mid-1990'S Has Led To A Relative Critical Neglect Of Her Work Until Recently.

1967Best.-Nr. 135010Various cities: Various Publishers 1967. A collection of 10 original lobby cards for the Mexican releases of nine films directed by or featuring Charlie Chaplin. Highlights of this bright charming collection include lobby cards for the Mexican releases of Chaplin's "Limelight" "King of New York" and "The Circus" as well as two variants for "The Chaplin Revue" seen here as both " La Revisita de Chaplin" and the official release title "La Cabalgata de Chaplin." Also present are three other unidentifiable cards likely festival days featuring multiple pieces of Chaplin's work and two cards for documentaries featuring Chaplin: the 1967 "The Funniest Man in the World" and the 1960 "When Comedy was King" translated here simply as "Risas y mas risas" no doubt an appropriate if slightly misleading title interpretation. Universally acclaimed as an actor director and producer Chaplin and his iconic Tramp character especially captured the hearts of the filmgoing population worldwide and to this day he is considered a legendary innovator in comedic cinema. Though his life was plagued by multiple marriages divorces and eventual revoking of his US citizenship his devotion to perfection in his work remained. 16.75 x 12.75 inches.
