MORANDI GIORGIO: (1890-1964) Italian Painter and Printmaker. Unusual and attractive dark ink sketch ...
MORANDI GIORGIO: (1890-1964) Italian Painter and Printmaker. A rare, early original pen and ink book illustration drawn and signed by Morandi, one page, 4to, n.p., n.d. (c.1928/29). The attractive image depicts a lady in a profile head and shoulders pose wearing a hat. Within the lines of the drawing Morandi has penned some text, in Italian, for publication in Antonio Baldini's book La Dolce Calamita (1929), in part `La Dolce Calamita di Antonio Baldini e la donna di nessuno…Lire 15 con un disegno di Giorgio Morandi´. Original illustrations by Morandi are highly sought after and the present example is particularly charming. VG £12000-18000
