Luca Andrea Guizzardi - The Washerwomen

The work can be defined as a genre scene, 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. The Impressionists, in particular, favored subjects related to modern life in urban, bourgeois settings.

Luca Andrea Guizzardi's landscapes and genre scenes display remarkable technical and compositional skill. His subjects are constructed almost entirely through color, which he expertly applies with loose brushstrokes charged with luminous vibrations. His paintings thus acquire a marked immediacy and freshness, yet are accompanied by a remarkable realism in the depiction of landscape views or narrative passages rich in detail and particulars.

Luca Andrea Guizzardi is an artist born in Milan in 1959. He is a painter who focuses primarily on his city, capturing its delightful views. His style is subdued in tone, applied with meticulous attention to detail. Formally, he demonstrates an excellent pictorial technique based on an impressionistic-inspired use of color.
