Lido Bettarini - 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.

Throughout his career, Lido Bettarini has developed a unique approach to landscape painting. Formally, his approach is extremely delicate, composed of light, overlapping layers. The urban agglomerations are arranged, level upon level, like fragile houses of cards. This exquisite quality of Lido Bettarini's work is further confirmed by his use of color, which, unfolding in broad, compact chromatic zones, encompasses the landscape, almost crystallizing it.

Lido Bettarini is a painter from Florence who lives and works in Cannes. He is well-known both nationally and internationally for his dreamy landscapes, imbued with a metaphysical atmosphere. Recurring themes in his work include snow-covered expanses, the lavender fields of the French countryside, and sails.
