Artwork location: Romania
This artwork features a quartet of ethereal angels intricately rendered in soft pink hues against a rich, golden backdrop, invoking a divine aura. Each angel is delicately posed, their wings elegantly unfurled, suggesting a sense of heavenly grace and motion. The piece's signature element is its unique marble-frame setting, resembling classical architecture with a pediment top, enhancing its timeless aesthetic. This juxtaposition of the celestial with the earthly frame creates a striking contrast, drawing the viewer into a contemplation of the divine within the mundane. The subtle interplay of color and form, combined with its classical motifs, evokes a sense of serenity and spiritual elevation. This work stands out for its harmonious blend of elements, inviting reflection on the intersection of angelic beauty and human craftsmanship.
The artwork technique is acrylics and golden leaf on shaped board.

Presentation
Fernando De Filippi is an Italian painter, sculptor and scenographer, born in Lecce (Italy) in 1940. He took his Master Degree in 1964 at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts (Milan).
He served as the director of the Brera Academy of Fine Arts (1991-2009) and the Academy of Verona from 2009 to 2011, playing a prominent role in Italy's art scene. He has an impressive list of exhibitions both in Italy and abroad. He participated in five editions of the Venice Biennale in 1970, 1972, with a “Personal Room" in 1976, and two “Special Projects" in 1978 and 1980. He was among the protagonists of the IX, X, XI, XII National Quadrennial Exhibition in Rome and the Triennale di Milano in 1981. Additionally, he took part in: “Art in Italy from 1960/1975" at the Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Turin; “Italian Art" at the Haward Gallery in London; “Lines of Artistic Research in Italy" at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome; “Aspects of Italian Painting from the Post-War Period to the Present Day" at the San Paolo and Rio Modern Art Museum; “Painting in Milan from 1945 to 1990." In 1998, he held a significant solo exhibition at Palazzo Reale in Milan. In 2009, Lecce dedicated a retrospective to him at the Church of S. Francesco della Scarpa, and in 2015, the Mudima Foundation in Milan presented “The Private Revolution 2" in his honor.
