Edmondo Giuliani - Untitled

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 watercolor, Edmondo Giuliani creates a sort of expressionist landscape. Phenomenal reality undergoes a significant process of synthesis, reduced to a two-dimensional surface. The subjects are reduced to the essentials with a few diluted brushstrokes. The composition is thus resolved into a sort of geometric construction of volumes delineated with a strong pictorialism and a textured application.

Edmondo Giuliani was a painter originally from Jesi, where he was born in 1915 and passed away in 2007. Essentially self-taught and a street painter, as he liked to call himself. A very popular figure in his hometown (of which he received honorary citizenship in 2000), he nevertheless exhibited his work in various shows in Italy and abroad. Only late in life did he attend painting courses at the Academy of Fine Arts in Macerata.
