Vittorio Zecchin Green Silk Tie

DESIGNER'S NOTES

A unique Fox & Chave printed silk tie with a design of various patterns from the work The Thousand and One Nights of the Princesses and Warriors (1914) by the Italian symbolist painter and glassmaker Vittorio Zechin (1878-1947).

Le Mille e una Notte, also known as "The Transparent Princesses," showcases Zecchin's distinctive style, which blends Art Nouveau influences with the rich, decorative aesthetics of Islamic art.

The paintings depict scenes from the exotic and romantic tales capturing the enchanting atmosphere of the stories. The focus is on figures portrayed in a dreamy, ethereal manner. Zecchin was fascinated by the mystical and storytelling aspects of these tales and sought to evoke their sensuality and mystery through his art.
