Silhouette VII

Silhouette VII  is an original color etching realized by the Italian  Giacomo Porzano  in  1972 .

Hand-signed  and  dated  by the artist in pencil on the lower right margin.

Hand-numbered in Arabic numerals, in pencil by the artist on the lower left margin. 

From an edition of 20 prints numbered in Arabic numerals plus artist's proofs.

In excellent conditions, this contemporary artwork demonstrates a full-mastery of the technique, and  the Porzano's intent to abstract the sensual shape of a female silhouette into textures, streaks and color backgrounds.
