DOMENICO GNOLI (1933-1970)
Starego Miasta Square, Warsaw. Illustration most likely published in Holiday magazine, circa 1960. Indian ink on paper. 13 x 18 inches. Unsigned. Title from inscription on verso: "Gnoli - Warsaw. Starego Miasta square in the old city, rebuilded identical to what it used to be."

Likely published in Holiday magazine, these illustrations of landmarks in Warsaw, Poland, showcase Gnoli's distinctive hyper-detailed style. His work captivates and provokes thought, urging viewers to delve deeper into the scene. Tragically, Gnoli's life was cut short when he died of cancer in 1970 at the age of 36. Despite his brief career, he achieved significant recognition in the art world.
