Etching, Aquatint, collage with gold leaf - Published by Galerie Klüser & Edition Schellmann - Signed and numbered on recto - Plate size: 47 X 66 cm. - Sheet size: 60 X 80 cm. // Francesco Clemente's Reconciliazione is a limited edition mixed media print created in 1986, combining etching, aquatint, and collage with gold leaf. The composition features a large human figure, crouched in a fetal-like position against a rich, deep blue background. The figure is outlined with intricate details, filled with abstract and symbolic imagery within the body, while small areas of gold leaf punctuate the composition, adding an ethereal quality. The use of gold leaf contrasts against the dark tones, symbolizing moments of enlightenment or spiritual significance. This piece reflects Clemente's exploration of inner reflection, human vulnerability, and the complexity of reconciliation, both personal and universal.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
