A Sheet of Heads. Artist: Mauro Gandolfi (Italian, Bologna 1764-1834 Bologna). Dimensions: 11 7/16 x 8 1/16 in. (29 x 20.5 cm). Date: late 18th-mid-19th century.This polished sheet with ten clustered heads is a fine example of the artist's so-called pictorial heads (teste pittoriche), a peculiar type of drawing that originated with the Bolognese artist Gaetano Gandolfi (1734-1802) and which his son Mauro continued with great commercial success. Included are heads of different types: old bearded men, portraits, women with complex hairdos, and youths with laurel crowns inspired by antiquity. With regularly spaced cross-hatching and a dense system of dots to create shadows and volumes, Gandolfi's signature style of draftsmanship renders form as if in a print.
