Description from the seller

Paolo Contin
When the cicadas were singing
Acrylic on Canvas - Hand-signed - 2025
Original painting sold directly from the artist

The painting is provided with a Certificate of authenticity, date, and handwritten signature on the back of the canvas.
Dimensions cm 90 x 100 x 0.1 (after framing, the picture will have these measurements).
The painting will be shipped rolled inside a suitable tube.

The artist, far from schools and trends, creates his works as a free man, following exclusively his own ideals and personal objectives.
In this painting with a textured background, the artist has drawn many shaded colors that then open up and fade away... The intense yellow color recalls the warmth of a hot summer when cicadas sing nonstop. It’s unclear whether they are lamenting the heat or, on the contrary, happy to live under the sun but still attached to the cool warmth of the branch where they rest during the day.

Paolo Contin has enjoyed a long artistic career. He trained in the world of design and has worked in fashion and art since 1980. He began exhibiting his work in 1999; his first solo exhibition was held in Padua in 2002, followed by numerous shows in Italy and abroad, including Copenhagen, Munich, Paris, Brussels, Istanbul, Buenos Aires, and Sydney.
