A QUARTERLY PRINT REVIEW OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WORKS OF ART FROM EUROPE'S
LEADING OLD MASTERS GALLERIES Including scholarly, engaging essays on Classical and Old Masters art history, connoisseurship, best addresses, manners, morals and Italia segreta. Four issues per year + our Et In Arcadia travel supplement $275.00. Printed and distributed in the USA.
ISSN: 3070-2283 (online) ISSN: 3070-2291 (print) The principle content of this magazine is dedicated to the rarest, most unusual works of art from the leading Old Masters galleries in Europe. The rest of each issue is devoted to feature essays on the great works, known and less-known, that have transcended centuries of decadence and decline, the tumults of history, the capriciousness of fashion and fashionable critics. The American founder and publisher of this publication, former resident of Grosse Pointe, New York, Los Angeles, Vienna, London, Cairo and the beautiful Balkans, was a long time contributor to The Wall Street Journal Europe and other publications including The International Herald Tribune, The Christian Science Monitor and Foreign Affairs, and was also briefly a special counselor to a princely art collecting family in Europe. The editorial advisor to Old Masters International is the former editor-in-chief of FMR--Franco Maria Ricci--once Italy's most prestigious art magazine, and who is today director-curator of one of the largest collections of Old Masters paintings in Italy. On the cover, right: A most extraordinary work, the Chiaramonte Bordonato Caravel, a 17th century masterpiece done almost entirely in rare Sicilian Trapani coral, with sails in silver, by one of the great craftsmen of Sicilian coral, Ippolito Ciotta. The Caravel was commissioned by the now-extinct Chiaramonte noble family of Sicily in 1680. Offered by Altomani & Sons, Milan
