AI-assisted summary

Origin
The work comes from the prestigious Galleria d'Arte Ponte Rosso in Milan (Via Brera 2), a historic gallery of reference for Lombard naturalism and chiarismo. The label on the back confirms its cataloging.

Documentation
Guarantee and authenticity label from Galleria Ponte Rosso applied to the back of the closing carton.

The artwork is in excellent condition. The paper shows no foxing, stains, or signs of yellowing; the colors appear fresh and vibrant. The silvered frame is in good overall condition with minimal, negligible signs of aging.

The work depicts a silent and poetic glimpse of the island of Torcello in the Venetian lagoon. Sinigaglia uses a very fluid and transparent watercolor technique, typical of the Lombard tradition, playing with shades of brown, blue, and decaying green to convey the humid atmosphere and the soft light of the lagoon sunset. A small jewel of landscape intimacy.
