Giovanni Sangalli - Untitled

02The subject falls within the genre scene category, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. These types of domestic subjects were long considered minor and only began to spread in Western art starting in the 17th century. Only with the development of 19th-century realism did everyday subjects become considered as important as historical or religious ones.

In this painting, Giovanni Sangalli adopts a more impressionistic pictorial style. He completely dismantles the traditional drawing framework, allowing complete freedom to the expressive potential of color. Thus, the figures are synthesized through a decidedly structural approach, constructed with broad, brief strokes of paint. His technique in this work is derived from post-impressionism, which, in addition to conveying immediacy in execution, imbues the work with intense emotional and poetic vibrations.

Giovanni Sangalli is a painter born in Milan in 1930. His pictorial production is distinguished by his experiments with the traditional genre of landscape and beyond, which led him to transfigure nature into abstract and surreal forms.
