{"product_id":"enrico-brandani-volto-di-donna","title":"Enrico Brandani - A Woman's Face","description":"\u003cp\u003ePortraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e \nIn his pictorial tradition, artist Enrico Brandani often focused on the human figure, particularly portraiture. Indeed, this painter's interest lies precisely in introspection and the study of human types. This quest for exploration is expressed stylistically by Brandani in a calm expressionism. As we can see in this \"Woman's Face,\" the artist is less interested in the authenticity of the subject's sensory physiognomy than in the creation of an existential identity, almost a human archetype. This is evident in the summary of the paint application, characterized by broad brushstrokes that structure the figure. It thus takes on a decidedly archaic character that transcends the sitter's individuality to take on a broader and deeper symbolic meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eEnrico Brandani was born in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1914 and died in 1979. He trained first in his hometown, then at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. He held several exhibitions in Cairo and Rome. Also very famous as an engraver, his paintings are divided between surrealism and existential expressionism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cervone Angelo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56215823024514,"sku":"ACER001","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_20201027_165930-copia.jpg?v=1768429472","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/enrico-brandani-volto-di-donna","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
