Untitled is a photographic by Giovanni Nicolini, depicting Francis of Assisi, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This image shows a photograph of a statue of a man in a long robe, standing on a rectangular base. The man is depicted with his hands clasped together in front of him, and he is wearing a hat. The statue appears to be made of stone or a similar material. The statue is set against a plain background, which suggests that it may be a studio or indoor setting. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of serenity and contemplation, as if the statue is meant to evoke a sense of calm and reflection. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who created this photograph, you might want to look up Nicolini, Giovanni.
A photograph is mounted on a green card as part of a collection bequeathed by William Kineton Parkes in 1938. Kineton Parkes, known for his work on sculpture, distributed questionnaires to sculptors in the 1920s, and this photograph is one of the responses he received. The image is held among materials now preserved in the Archive of Art and Design.

We don’t know much about Giovanni Nicolini—no birth date, no biography, just a name and a quiet photo titled *Untitled (Photograph)*.
