Description
Oil on paperboard. Signed upper left. Dimensions: 10" x 12". Louise Marianetti (1916-2009) graduated from RISD & studied at Arts Students League in NYC. A sharp and well executed image of a young girl playing the Lute, Marianetti was inspired by Italian art like the Pre-Raphaelites and rendered highly convincing imagery with extraordinary attention to detail. This paper board had a slight crease that was repaired. The apple bough of flowers juxtaposed against the grisaille depicts the young girl entirely in shades of gray creating the illusion of sculpture, especially relief.
