Mario Poggiali - Untitled

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.

The painter Mario Poggiali stands out for his genre work, exploring characteristic scenes of city life, which he imbues with a unique lyricism. Hence his penchant for picturesque or folkloristic scenes, always within an evocative urban setting. Formally, this translates into an extremely impressionistic, vibrant, and dynamic style that ensures freshness and immediacy of execution. His brushstrokes are characterized by a remarkably cursive touch, made up of sudden flickers that effectively capture the vibrations of light on objects. This is particularly evident in the rendering of reflections on the street or in the calligraphic touches with which he delineates the small characters moving across the scene. The entire composition is imbued with a calm sentimentality and a freshness deriving from the artist's technical prowess.

Mario Poggiali is a Florentine artist who focuses primarily on urban landscapes and genre scenes, with a highly lyrical vision of phenomenal reality. Translating emotions into images through a vibrant, cursive style inspired by impressionism is essential to the artist.
