Ambrogio Quezel - Vase of Flowers

Flowers as a subject in themselves began to appear in still lifes, a genre that emerged in the early 17th century. Subsequently, painters, especially the Impressionists, increasingly focused on the floral world as an extraordinary opportunity to capture vibrant colors and light. Thus, flowers began to appear not only in vases, but also immersed in their natural landscape. While initially a pretext for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art, the subject of flowers also becomes a way of interpreting reality.

We can see how, in this interpretation of Ambrogio Quezel's flower theme, the fundamental elements of expression are color and brushstrokes. Although firmly rooted in a figurative conception, Quezel's painting is profoundly material and gestural. The color is distributed in dense, full-bodied layers that almost elevate the painting's surface. Gesture is crucial, capable of giving form to the object with just a few essential touches. The result is a powerfully alive and vibrant depiction, in an interpretation of painting that stems from the post-Impressionist tradition and reaches an extraordinary contemporaneity.

As we can see from the analysis of this work, Ambrogio Quezel is characterized by a pictorial research based on the expressive power of the brushstroke. In his works, he achieves a remarkable synthesis of the subject that enhances the painter's gestures.
