Description from the seller

The Old Man and the Screen

An elderly man dressed in all black sits upon white Mediterranean steps, absorbed in a glowing smartphone. His white beard and wide-brimmed hat frame round dark sunglasses, lending him an air of quiet mystery. Bold geometric planes of deep forest green, golden yellow, and luminous white structure the composition dramatically. Rich impasto brushwork builds textured walls and stairs, while warm ochre skin tones contrast against cool shadows. The scene merges timeless solitude with modern distraction.

About Stefano

Stefano is an Italian contemporary artist whose signature palette-knife impasto fuses impression with abstraction, drawing modern landscape into the realm of feeling. Working in layered oils, he builds terrains of light and texture where color, movement, and emotion collide-ridges catch the sun, scraped passages breathe, and horizons are implied rather than described.

Born in Milan and now based in a small town in the countryside, he draws equally on urban momentum and rural quiet. His process is physical and rhythmic: mixing dense pigments, laying and lifting paint, and letting the knife score and glide so that time remains inscribed on the surface. City lines loosen into gesture; meadows turn into chromatic tides.

Stefano's canvases open a conversation between reality and imagination, between memory and place. He turns recollection into motion and places into sensation, inviting viewers to linger, wander, and recognize themselves in the shifting distance.
