I have been loving the look of the INTAGLIO.
What is it??
A. An Engraving or incised figure in stone or other hard material depressed below the surface so that an impression from the design yields an image in relief.
B. The Art or Process of Executing Intaglios.
C. Something ( As a Gem) carved in Intaglio.
D. Printing (as in die stamping and gravure) done from a plate in which the image is sunk below the surface.

I think I am also loving the simplicity of the art form. The White matting, setting apart a textural "picture".
Simple. Dramatic. Clean.
I'm on it! I just might be using this Art Form for my Office Illusion and the ORC ... I am in Artist Mode.
Have you seen any particular Art Style that has grabbed your attention lately??
Please share!

Kim, there are so many kinds of art that I love. I am running out of walls for my collection. I think I need my own little museum so that I can have a bit of everything I love, including intaglios.
ReplyDeleteI'm like Kerry ~ love so many styles it's hard to narrow it down! They would look fabulous in your new office!
ReplyDeleteA new Art form for me. Thank you for featuring it! I love it! Yes, it belongs in your Illusion!
ReplyDeleteLove the simplicity yet great detail and 3D of these pieces!
ReplyDeleteI love this too, Kim! I'm drawn to the graphic simplicity they can create.
ReplyDeleteI would say, It's all French to me...but it's Italian, I'm guessing. I love the architectural feel of it.
ReplyDeleteI love it too. I love how graphic and how old it is. They are just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about these. Thanks for sharing the details! way cool.
ReplyDeleteI have intaglios in my living room and I love the clean, simple look...beautiful examples!
ReplyDeleteI really like art that's different and its also hard to find...so I really like these.
ReplyDeleteI think these are beautiful! When I was doing printmaking the term intaglio was used for etching below the surface of a zinc metal plate, then when put through a press the ink was lifted from the recessed lines to create the image on paper.. This art form that I've been seeing lately is like little plaster relief medallions.. They are really lovely framed. Hope you score some of these beauties!
