EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures a detailed view of Owen Jones' Italian 88, a series of arabesque designs painted in fresco on partially-coloured grounds. The intricately ornate patterns, inspired by the decorative arts of the Middle East and Italy, are mostly sourced from the Palazzo Ducale in Mantua. Painted in 1868, these designs are a testament to Jones' mastery of the fresco technique, which involves painting on wet plaster. The vibrant colors and rich textures of the frescoes are brought to life in this image, showcasing the intricate interplay of fruit, faces, flowers, leaves, and borders. The partially-coloured grounds add depth and dimension to the arabesques, creating a sense of movement and fluidity that is both captivating and timeless. Owen Jones (1809-1874) was a British architect, designer, and writer, known for his influential work in the fields of decorative arts and interior design. He is best known for his book, "The Grammar of Ornament," which was first published in 1856 and remains a classic reference work in the field. The Palazzo Ducale in Mantua, a grand palace built in the 1400s, is a testament to the rich history and artistic heritage of Italy. The frescoes in the palace are just one of its many treasures, reflecting the cultural exchange and artistic innovation that took place during the Renaissance period. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the enduring allure of historical art and the intricate beauty of ornate decoration. It invites us to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry that went into creating these stunning works of art, and to marvel at the timeless elegance of the designs themselves.
