Limoni, oil on canvas, 25 × 35 cm, hand-signed, by Marino Faliero (1948), Italy, 2020+, classic style, original edition, still life.
Description from the seller
Bring a touch of Mediterranean sunshine to your collection with this splendid still life by M. Faliero. The work celebrates one of the most iconic symbols of our land: lemons. The main protagonists, five plump and shiny lemons, are laid on a light surface, rendered with such mastery that their citrus fragrance almost seems to be perceptible.
The artist captures with extreme precision the rough, porous texture of the peel, playing with shades that range from intense lemon yellow to the green of the tips. The leaves, still attached to the branch and of a deep, glossy green, frame the fruits, giving the composition a sense of freshly picked freshness.
Technical Details and Style
M. Faliero's style aligns with the tradition of classical figurative art, but with a modern sensitivity in the use of light. The dark background, elegantly blended, creates a strong chiaroscuro contrast that makes the lemons in the foreground stand out, giving them an almost sculptural three-dimensionality.
Artist: M. Faliero (signature present at the bottom right).
Still life with lemons.
Technique: Oil on canvas.
Dimensions: 25x35 cm (an ideal and highly sought-after format for kitchen compositions or elegant living areas).
Authenticity: On the back of the canvas, the artist's handwritten signature and the title of the work ('Lemons') are present. Additionally, the frame bears the guarantee stamp 'Per Autentica - M. Faliero,' confirming the piece's originality.
Why does this lot deserve your attention?
This canvas embodies refined simplicity. The choice of such a natural subject, combined with impeccable technical execution, makes the piece highly versatile: perfect for a modern kitchen, a classic dining room, or a professional studio that needs a touch of color and serenity. A small jewel of contemporary realism that will never cease to delight the eye.
