AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An evocative oil painting on canvas that reinterprets Rome's iconic horizon from a dystopian and poetic perspective: the Eternal City flooded under water. It highlights its striking sunset, which bathes the scene in a palette of warm, golden, and twilight tones with a strong dramatic charge.
The composition stands out for a subtle abstract approach, dividing the space into clean fields of color where the sky and the water's reflection converse in almost perfect symmetry.
The concept, the story to be told, is the most important in art: the difficult balance between nature and humankind. Nature struggles to survive and to reclaim the space that man has been taking from it. These images become a metaphor for the complicated times we live in our relationship with nature.
Another idea is the transformation of the city, the reconfiguration of the urban space and the arrangement of buildings to turn them into the Ideal City. This transformative idea is idealized with the important presence of nature that replaces asphalt.
Isn’t that a great idea?

Seller's Story
My personal artwork.
Oil paintings on black and white photographic grisaille on canvas.
Dreamlike views of cities. Natural transformation of the city and the urban environment to make it more pleasant and livable.
Recreated views of the city. An idealized vision of the city surrounded by nature.
A panoramic vision of a reinvented city.
Nature recovers the space that always belonged to it.
