AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mixed media on canvas

We are offering for sale an original work attributed to Romano Mussolini, an iconic subject of the clown, a recurring and highly appreciated theme in the artist's body of work.

The painting stands out for its strong emotional intensity: the face emerges from the background with a piercing gaze, laden with melancholy and introspection. The composition is enriched by drips and splashes of color, which lend dynamism and depth, creating an effective contrast between the figurative and abstract expressionism.
The color palette, dominated by reds, blues, and yellows, gives the work a bold and contemporary character.

The work is signed at the bottom left 'Romano Mussolini', as visible in the photo.
Canvas support, in good condition, ready to display.

Romano Mussolini was a recognized artist in the Italian painting scene of the twentieth century; his figurative works, particularly those devoted to the theme of the clown, are today sought after on the collectible market.

An artwork with a strong visual and emotional impact, ideal for both collectors and anyone looking for a piece of art that can stand out.
