Panel - Softwood

Panel by Nino Gobbis, faesite relief in faesite, 45 x 63 cm with raised reliefs. Vase of flowers on a black background.

Nino Gobbis used faesite or masonite as a matrix, which allows obtaining precise lines and uniform fills and a surface that is decidedly harder and more resistant.

Gobbis collaborated with Arreda di Celotto, which produced in the 1950s furnishings designed by famous Italian architects and designers such as Piero Celotto, commissioning from artists like Nino Gobbis decorative panels to furnish bourgeois houses, offices, hotels or cruise ships. This type of art unites artistic craftsmanship with design production, integrating sculpture perfectly into the interior architecture of the era.
The panel has undergone no treatment and retains all its charm.

Nino Gobbis, Italian painter and engraver active in the middle of the 20th century, a figure deeply linked to the world of bespoke interior design and Treviso-era mid-century modernism of the 1950s and 1960s.

Statement of provenance

I declare that the present panel comes from the private collection of the Celotto family of Montebelluna, in whose possession it has remained since the time of its creation. The work subsequently became part of my private collection and is offered for sale with this provenance declaration, issued in good faith.

For shipping the object is protected by a double layer of plywood or corrugated cardboard, 5 cm thick to prevent damage during transport; unfortunately this affects shipping costs.
