Mid‑Century Modern woodcut panel by Nino Gobbis for Celotto, circa 1950–1960, in used, discrete condition with probable small missing pieces; dimensions 69 × 122 cm, depth 4 cm, weight 7 kg, carved on soft wood (Legno dolce) originating from Veneto, Treviso, Italy.
Description from the seller
This large panel (69 x 122) is a woodcut on wood by Nino Gobbis, inspired by archaic-tribal sources.
Nino Gobbis used faesite (also known as hardboard or Masonite) as the matrix.
The object shows some slight signs of wear and a few chips, subsequently repaired with a conservation intervention, which has not compromised either its stability or its historical charm.
Gobbis collaborated with Arreda di Celotto (Montebelluna), which in the 1950s produced furniture designed by Italian architects and designers such as Piero Celotto, commissioning decorative panels from artists like Nino Gobbis for furnishing elements in bourgeois houses of Veneto.
Nino Gobbis, Italian painter and printmaker active in the mid-twentieth century, a figure deeply linked to the world of designer interiors and Treviso’s mid-century modernism of the 1950s and 1960s.
Provenance declaration
I declare that the present panel comes from the private collection of the Celotto family of Montebelluna, since the time of its creation. The work subsequently became part of my private collection and is being sold with this provenance declaration, issued in good faith.
