Enrico Perler - Piazza Navona

The urban landscape was already a popular subject in the Middle Ages and the Modern Era, but predominantly in an idealized manner. Scenes of city life became typical themes with a more realistic interpretation starting in the 19th century. It's worth remembering how, immediately following the realist movements of the 19th century, the Impressionists also placed great emphasis on the everyday, on everyday life, with a certain predilection, however, for the frenetic pace of the city, its crowds, traffic, and typically bourgeois settings.

In this work, we can appreciate how Enrico Perler's style is based on a perfect expressive balance between naturalistic rendering and coloristic synthesis. Indeed, the view appears in all its naturalness and truth, thanks to the artist's flawless technique, which manages to depict every detail with vivacity and a sense of plasticity. The buildings appear vibrant with life, thanks to a brilliant polychrome of harmonious and balanced colors. The scene is softened by the light and, therefore, appears vibrant with life. At the same time, however, the artist achieves a marked formal synthesis: the structural brushstrokes exert a remarkable synthesis on the subject, constructed through rapid and dynamic strokes.

Enrico Perler is an artist originally from Rome, famous for his views of the capital. He is a post-impressionist painter whose style leverages the expressive potential of color.
