Gisella Giovenco

That which at twilight had appeared to be a silvery sea-god's palace, a structure of twisted sea-shapes, was now a temple built by the cunning genies of Fire.
~Gabriele D'Annunzio

These are all absolutely wonderful! And silk, too...I wouldn't have guessed, but I'm all the more impressed by his use of that medium. Gisella Giovenco is a magnificent artist.
