Légende

'Madonna with two female Saints', 1747-1748, (1928). 'The Madonna (?) and Child and two female Saints', pen with wash on paper. Probably a sketch for the 'pala delle Sante' altarpiece in the Church of the Gesuati in Venice, Italy, painted 1747-1748. If so, the seated figure would be St Rose of Lima, and the two standing figures St Catherine of Siena and St Agnes of Montepulciano. At one time known to have been in the Former Orloff Collection, Paris, France. Italian Venetian painter and printmaker Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770), worked not only in Italy, but also in Germany and Spain. He was commissioned to carry out frescoes in churches and palaces, and was elected President of the Academy of Padua. As well as his large-scale majestic works, he also produced etchings and oil paintings, and is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of the period.
