AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Author: Mario Ughi (Livorno, 1933 - 2012)
Title: Sea Air
Year: 1970
Technique: Oil on canvas
Dimensions without frame: 70 × 60 cm
Dimensions with frame: 81 x 91 cm
Signature: bottom left and on the back of the canvas

Description: Painting with a marine subject characterized by a surreal composition and a dark, evocative atmosphere. At the center of the work, an octopus is depicted together with fish and a shell, arranged inside a basket. The contrast between the dark background and the light pinkish tones of the animals highlights the details and volumes of the figures.

The work can be linked to Mario Ughi's figurative and surreal exploration, the Livorno-born painter whose production developed from magical realism toward a strongly personal and imaginative language.

On the back of the canvas are the inscription “Sea Air”, the date 1970, the signature and the indication “Livorno”. The frame bears several stamps from the Livorno framing workshop R. Bulleri.

The work is presented with a wooden frame and a mat.

Shipping: The work will be entrusted to a specialized courier, responsible for packing and shipping. The gallery is not liable for any damage that may occur during transport, which must be reported to the courier according to the terms of the shipping service.
