Leonardo Castellani Art
Italian, 1896-1984
Leonardo Castellani was an artist and a writer from the Marches who since childhood has experimented with various artistic typologies, from wood carving to painting, sculpture, decoration of public spaces and ceramics. After a while, he dedicated himself to etching with remarkable results and experimented with new chalcographic techniques searching for the newest outcomes. Since 1930, Castellani has taught chalcography at the institute for the illustration and decoration of books. When he started experimenting with chalcographic engraving, Castellani favored mainly landscapes, human figures and still lifes. Between 1928–73, Castellani realized 798 engravings in the smallest circulations. He was also a writer and an editor. The beautiful engraving shells is an artwork that inspires contemporary still lifes by the great painter Giorgio Morandi.

Schneiderman catalog 186 state .xii. 13 1/4 X 17 1/2 (sheet 18 5/8 x 23 1/4). Edition of 50 in this state, published by the Fine Art Society. A fine impression printed on cream wove paper with full margins. Signed in pencil. Housed in a 22 28-inch archival mat, suitable for framing.
Born in 1818, Sir Francis Seymour Haden was an etcher, collector and surgeon. He studied at the Derby School, Christ’s Hospital and University College in London. He also studied at the medical schools of the Sorbonne in Paris and at Grenoble. He became a member of the Royal College of Surgeons in 1842 and he was made a fellow in 1857. He was an honorary surgeon to the Department of Science and Art from 1851 to 1867 and in 1847 he settled into a private practice. Haden was a vice-president of the obstetrical society of London and one of the founders of the Royal Hospital for Incurables in 1850.
In 1858, Haden encouraged James McNeil Whistler to work from nature and consequently, Whistler dedicated his first set of etchings entitled “French Set”, to Haden. The etchings were printed by Auguste Delâtre in Paris and marketed, with some help from Haden, in London. In 1859 Whistler settled in London and often visited Haden’s Sloane Street home. Whistler executed a number of paintings and etchings of domestic scenes within Haden’s home, among them “Reading By Lamplight...
