EDITORS COMMENTS
Head" is a captivating work of art by the renowned Italian artist Pier Francesco Mola (circa 1612-1666), also known as Piero Francesco Mola or Pietro Francesco Mola. The antique print, of undetermined date, showcases Mola's mastery of pen and brown ink with brush and brown wash on ivory laid paper, skillfully laid down on gray wove paper. This monochromatic drawing is a testament to Mola's exceptional talent and his deep understanding of the human form. The subject of the drawing is a powerful and enigmatic head, depicted with remarkable detail and depth. The intricately rendered features, from the furrowed brow and deeply set eyes to the wrinkles and creases on the forehead, convey a sense of intense emotion and inner turmoil. The use of contrasting textures, from the smooth ivory laid paper to the rough gray wove paper, adds an intriguing visual dimension to the artwork. This beautiful drawing is a precious addition to the vast collection of prints and drawings at the Art Institute of Chicago. It is a window into the rich cultural heritage of Italy and a reminder of the enduring influence of the Old Masters on contemporary art. Whether viewed as a standalone piece or as part of a larger exhibit, "Head" is sure to captivate and inspire viewers with its timeless beauty and intricate detail. Mola's "Head" is a conceptual work that transcends the boundaries of time and place, inviting us to contemplate the complexities of the human experience. It is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for the art of the past and a desire to explore the depths of the human soul. The print is a unique and valuable piece of art history, a precious reminder of the artistic legacy of Pier Francesco Mola and the enduring power of the arts to move and inspire us.
