Landscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance; then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.

The work is a clear example of an Expressionist landscape. Reality is interpreted in an extremely synthetic manner, with an almost brutal exercise in reduction. The surface is completely two-dimensional, with no allowance for spatial depth. The brushstrokes delineate the forms in a very tormented and nervous manner, with a gestural attitude that draws on the poetics of Informal Art and Action Painting. Color is used according to an emotional and spiritual interpretation, almost disconnected from reality.

It is clear how in the development of this graphic design the landscape subject is used as a starting point for research to develop a strongly expressionist language that almost achieves informal results.
