Giancarlo Prandelli, Lady with an Ermine, Retouchè, 21x29,5cm (R12)

In this extraordinary artwork by Giancarlo Prandelli, we see the infamous Lady with an Ermine by Leonardo da Vinci in a contemporary context. Prandelli has placed the sketch of the Lady with an Ermine along with a series of puzzles that, according to the artist, help understand the hidden meanings of the original work by Leonardo. A distinct quality of this work is the contrast between the traditional Renaissance style and the modern contemporary approach. The use of fluorescent colours reminds us of the characteristics of pop art. The artist has also made inscriptions as part of the Prandelli Code and has signed the piece on the right corner.
