Description
Ricardo Benvenuti (1939-2023) - Figura. Original lithograph on wove paper, 64 x 48 cm. Signed in pencil by the artist and numbered. Condition A, perfect state of conservation. This work is a masterly demonstration of the style of the Italian artist Ricardo Benvenuti, whose work is at the crossroads of classical Renaissance and dreamlike modernity. In "Figura", the artist explores the human body with sovereign elegance, emphasising the purity of line and the nobility of attitude. The subject is treated with an almost sculptural softness, where the modelling of the forms emerges from a subtle play of light and shadow, characteristic of his search for ideal beauty. Benvenuti used a palette of tones that were often refined and temperate, allowing the graphics to retain all their expressive power and poetry. The technical mastery of lithography serves here to magnify the discreet sensuality and spiritual dimension emanating from his figures, often isolated in a timeless space. The 64 cm format highlights the balance of the composition and the finesse of the line, testifying to Benvenuti's major place in contemporary European figurative art. The artist's hand signature at the bottom of the print confirms the authenticity of this plate, which invites contemplation and contemplation. It is a collector's item of great visual sophistication, combining the rigour of Italian drawing with a contemporary sensibility of rare delicacy.
