AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fascinating original graphic artwork by Maestro Giorgio de Chirico, attributable to the famous Neometaphysical period (the 1970s).
The work presents itself as a true "Metaphysical Theater" structured on multiple spatial and symbolic levels.
At the center of the composition is the typical stage of de Chirico's iconography; musical instruments stand out, with a harp in the foreground symbolizing harmony. Beside the musical instruments rises the solemn bust of Greek mythology, while the scene is flanked by two imposing green curtains, opened to reveal a suggestive external backdrop (the shadow of the enigma).

Artist: Giorgio de Chirico (1888-1978)

Subject: Metaphysical Theater / Still life with musical instruments.

Technique: Original graphics (lithography/color print).

Edition: Artist's proof P.A. signed in pencil at the bottom — No. 6.

Signature: Signed in pencil De Chirico at bottom right.

Support: Fine French paper with watermark "ARCHES"

Dimensions: image 49.5 x 34.2 cm; sheet 70 x 50 cm

The work is sold with an important frame and matting of 13 cm, giving total dimensions of 95 cm in height and 75 cm in width.

Advice: to protect the work, a protective glass is recommended.

Overall, the work presents very well and makes a strong visual impact.
