Description from the seller
This beautiful painting by Antonio Gravina depicts a luminous riverside scene inspired by Post-Impressionism, characterized by a textured and vibrant brushstroke that adds dynamism to the surface. In the foreground, an elegantly dressed couple strolls along a tree-lined path that runs alongside the river, where several boats are moored at the shore. In the background, city architectures can be seen immersed in a soft light, while the skillful play of reflections on the water and the contrast between the shadows of the vegetation and the brightness of the sky evoke a serene atmosphere typical of the Belle Époque.
Hand-signed by the artist as shown in the photo.
