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 16th century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism. In keeping with the aesthetic canons of the Roman School, of which Omiccioli is one of the most important representatives, the landscape in this painting is minimal, intimate, the fruit of an exercise in pure pictorial vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGiovanni Omiccioli can be considered one of the most important exponents of the pictorial tendencies of the Roman School, the movement that, between the 1930s and 1940s, opposed the rigor and plastic exaltation of the Novecento movement with a style inspired by European Expressionism. A distinctive characteristic of the Roman School, as well as that of Giovanni Omiccioli, is an elegant formal synthesis that is essentially achieved through color. In this painting, the Roman artist continues this approach with a pronounced abstraction of volumes, resolving the objects with a few brushstrokes. The landscape of the countryside, while still recognizable, is transformed in form by the painter's impetuous sensibility, which characterizes the depiction of profound vibrations that are atmospheric, yet also lyrical and existential. Unlike other painters of the Roman School, however, in Omiccioli we note a more pronounced minimalism. Furthermore, in this artist, a prevalence of cold tones is common, compared to the warm colours that characterise exponents such as Mafai, Scipione or Quaglia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGiovanni Omiccioli was a Roman artist born in 1901 and died in 1975. He joined the Roman School in 1928, associating with Mafai, Raphael, and Scipione. He was also active in politics and produced the first newspaper for Unità in 1945. That same year, he participated in the First Exhibition of Art Against Barbarism, promoted by the communist newspaper at the Galleria di Roma. Winner of the Marzotto Prize with Shepherd with a Goat, Omiccioli was present at the most important exhibitions: of particular note were his invitation to a retrospective at the Hermitage in St. Petersburg and a solo exhibition at the Galleria d'Arte La Medusa in Naples.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sorgi Monica","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218652443010,"sku":"MSOR003","price":500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/Giovanni-Omiccioli-Capanno-sotto-la-neve.jpg?v=1768475307","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/giovanni-omiccioli-capanne-sotto-la-neve","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
