Description from the seller
Figurative Expressionist Painting Depicting a Woman – Franco Murer
Important oil painting on canvas created by the artist Franco Murer in 1986, titled 'La notte di Valpurga,' as per the original label on the back. The work, of great visual impact, depicts a nude female figure lying in the foreground, set within a rich and dynamic composition populated by other female figures and a strongly interpreted natural landscape.
The style is figurative-expressionist, characterized by energetic, gestural, and textured brushwork, with intense and contrasting colors ranging from greens and blues to yellows, reds, and ochre. The figures emerge from the background almost in a visionary way, creating a dreamlike and symbolic atmosphere typical of emotional and instinctive painting. The composition appears balanced but deliberately restless, with sinuous movements and chromatic overlaps that give depth and narrative tension to the work.
The painting is signed and dated, and is presented in a simple dark-colored frame that enhances its chromatic strength and the scene depicted. A work of notable presence, ideal for reception areas or modern and contemporary art collections.
