Lucan Carpette - Ecce Homo

The subject of this work, in particular, follows the iconographic model of the "Ecce Homo," referring to the episode of the Passion in which Christ, after his trial, was shown to the public. For these reasons, the subject of the Ecce Homo became, especially starting in the 17th century, an emblematic and significant image of Christ's redemptive sacrifice.

In his interpretation of sacred art subjects, artist Lucan Carpette emphasizes the dramatic nature of the work, clearly accentuating the departure from naturalistic representation. The sense of the sacred and the divine is communicated through an expressionist synthesis, through which natural truth gives way to a process of abstraction with a precise conceptual value. Thus, the scenes are constructed through broad brushstrokes, dense with pictorial substance. Finally, the color also transcends the confines of realism, adopting more spiritual than naturalistic hues. Red, the artist's absolute favorite, predominates.

Lucan Carpette is the pseudonym of Luciano Angelini, a Roman artist born in 1928.
