Mimmo Paladino — Tane di Napoli portfolio cover
Mimmo Paladino

Tane di Napoli portfolio cover

Mimmo Paladino's *Tane di Napoli* portfolio cover showcases his mastery of etching and drypoint, combining the delicate texture of cream Chine collé with the weight of wove paper to create a richly layered surface. The work reflects Paladino's signature fusion of archaic symbolism and contemporary expressionism, evoking the ancient, labyrinthine spirit of Naples through enigmatic imagery. Issued as a complete portfolio piece, the folded sheet mounted to the colophon underscores the work's intimate relationship between art object and document.

Medium
Etching and drypoint, on cream Chine collé to wove paper, the full sheet, folded and mounted to the colophon (as issued).
