V. Altieri (1977) - Il Silenzio della Luna Verde

Title: The Silence of the Green Moon
Artist: V. Altieri
Technique: Oil on panel
Dimensions: 30x50 cm

In this evocative oil-on-panel composition, Vittorio Altieri constructs a landscape suspended between reality and imagination, where the geometry of forms becomes poetic language and nature turns into a timeless stage set. A small village with essential architectures emerges at the center of the scene, immersed in an atmosphere of absolute quiet, illuminated by the quiet presence of a full moon that dominates the night sky.
The houses, characterized by pure volumes and clean lines, stand out for the vibrant-colored roofs that harmonize with the intense hues of the surrounding landscape. The vegetal shapes, stylized and monumental, rise like theatrical backdrops behind the village, alternating brilliant greens, golden ochers, and soft natural shades that give depth and rhythm to the composition.
The water, perfectly still, reflects the landscape with mirror-like precision, amplifying the sense of balance and serenity. The violet forms on the sides of the settlement introduce an almost dreamlike element, evoking mysterious presences that contribute to making the scene fascinating and contemplative. The solitary figure that crosses the village and the couple seated on the bench add a discreet narrative dimension, suggesting silent stories and moments of intimate reflection.
The work strikes with the elegant synthesis between figuration and abstraction, where pure color, simplicity of forms, and rigorous spatial construction give life to a harmonious and poetic universe. Altieri invites the observer to immerse themselves in a place of the soul, an imaginary refuge in which time seems to have stopped and every element contributes to conveying a deep sense of peace and contemplation.
