AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

“Regina di Cuori (il bluff)” is an original and spectacular surrealist work, a remix of an earlier piece by Antonio Pirozzi that staged, by materializing it, the famous playing card Queen of Hearts. Executed in oil on canvas, the work symbolizes a woman without a mask, capable of comforting, listening and at the same time bluffing, making a mockery of those around her. Beautiful, rich in bright colors, set in a Venetian context, the piece measures 70 cm in height by 60 cm in length. It is shipped by express courier SDA of Poste Italiane or with GLS. Delivery times are: for Italy 2/3 days; abroad 5/6 days. On the back, attached to the artwork, is the certificate of authenticity (COA), the artist’s signature, and the professional stamp.

Antonio Pirozzi, born in Giugliano in Campania near Naples, is an architect and painter. He trained within the circle of Neapolitan surrealist and metaphysical painters, among whom we notably mention Antonio Nunziante. The canvases, in fact, often crystallize dreamlike and unreal atmospheres, compositions of remarkable poetic quality, built on absurd juxtapositions that seem to recall the realm of the subconscious and the arcane.

He currently lives and works in Mugnano di Napoli.
