As with all of his works, it is notable and unusual for its compact size; this piece by Master Aldo Gentilini is part of a private collection.
It is an abstract work with notable figurative symbolism, and is particularly suitable for someone with a small space to decorate and enliven with taste.

The artwork comes complete with its original frame, which is in good condition, but without the glass, which could be re-fitted if desired.

The images shown are an integral part of the description.

It will be packed with great care and shipped via express courier with tracking.

Aldo Gentilini was born in Genoa in 1911; from a young age he felt a strong religious vocation that led him to enter the cloistered monastery of Pietrasanta, where he stayed for three years, pursuing philosophical studies, and then, self-taught, dedicated himself to artistic research, which would lead him to exhibit in numerous shows in Italy and abroad.
A man of faith, he believed that only through art could the divine be reached. And this thought would underpin all his work:
"I try to make emptiness – Gentilini declared – This emptiness provokes a certain catharsis in me: I observe sensitive values that I respect, I reevaluate them, but I never know how I will fall into the painting, and this is the realization of a truth toward the sign never thought."
He was an artist who practiced asceticism, to imitate the Saint to whom he was devoted. The two natures, the human and the aesthetic, coincide perfectly.
