Description from the seller
Oil painting on cardboard titled 'La Carrozzella' by Antonio Asturi
Antonio Asturi (1904-1986) was an Italian painter known for his scenes of daily Roman life and landscapes. Active mainly in the 20th century, Asturi captured with sensitivity characteristic moments of popular Rome, including the traditional horse-drawn carriages that were an integral part of the Roman urban landscape until the mid-twentieth century. This kind of subject represents an important historical document of the city's life at the time.
These works are particularly appreciated by collectors of Italian 20th-century art and by enthusiasts of Roman history. The Roman carriage, symbol of a bygone era, makes these paintings interesting both artistically and nostalgically. The admirers of Italian figurative art and the collectors of Roman viewpoints find in these works documentary value as well as aesthetic, representing an authentic slice of daily life in the Italian capital in the last century.
Dimensions with frame (provided as a courtesy): 34.5x30x5
