A. Neto (XX) - Scorcio di borgo antico

Enchanting original oil painting on canvas signed bottom left. The work captures the magic and light of a typical Mediterranean village through an extraordinarily vigorous painting technique. The painting stands out for an exceptionally rich and three-dimensional impasto. The artist builds the entire scene by layering thick brushstrokes and decisive, textural spatters. A suggestive uphill alley with stairs, historic architectures topped by a tower and a lush flowering tree that contrasts with the intense blue of the sky. The white and lilac walls of the houses, as well as the stone steps, are sculpted on the canvas with crisp spatula strokes that create a beautiful play of real light and shadow. The tree’s crown, filled with pink and magenta flowers, is brought to life by dense, thick touches of color that emerge from the support.
