Cesare Vittorini - Untitled

The "Still Life" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consisted of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with naturalistic or photographic reproductions of reality, with contemporary art, the "Still Life" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory aspect.

The execution of this still life by artist Cesare Vittorini is underpinned by a very classical and traditional taste. His style, in this case, is objective and highly didactic, and Vittorini demonstrates his skill in achieving a perfect realistic rendering in a richly detailed representation. Nevertheless, the painter does not shy away from using a cursive style, composed of rapid strokes, to give the work greater vivacity and freshness. Thus, the brushstrokes display a certain level of synthesis, without ever compromising the clarity of the anecdotal narrative or the realistic subject, but just enough to infuse the scene with a delicate lyricism.

Cesare Vittorini is an artist who has focused his research on traditional and figurative themes such as vases of flowers, still lifes, and landscapes, but with a strong experimental attitude that has led him to adopt a predominantly expressionist and abstract style.
