Artist: Andrea Riccio - Title: Sibylle Announcing the Birth of Christ to Emperor Augustus - Medium: Fine Art Giclee on Canvas - Image Size: Approximately 20 inches x 15.5 inches - Unframed on Unstretched Canvas - Biography: Andrea Riccio (c. 1470 - 1532) was an Italian sculptor and occasional architect, whose real name was Andrea Briosco, but is usually known by his sobriquet meaning "curly"; he is also known as Il Riccio and Andrea Crispus ("curly" in Latin). He is mainly known for small bronzes, often practical objects such as inkwells, door knockers or fire-dogs, exquisitely sculpted and decorated in a classicising Renaissance style.
