R. Brunori - Untitled

The clown was a popular subject among genre painters of the 1970s and 1980s. Many artists dedicated much of their careers to depicting this theme, Romano Mussolini being a prime example. Typically, the interpretation of this subject is similar for all artists who tackle it: the clown appears with his makeup designed to evoke laughter and hilarity, but instead displays a melancholic expression. This contrast is intended to spark an empathetic dialogue with the viewer.

The execution of this painting by R. Brunori emphasizes a strong figurative style, especially in the depiction of the face. The subject is depicted with great physiognomic precision. The rest of the subject's body, wrapped in a loose robe, is treated with a subtle painterly quality. The broad brushstrokes blend gently into the surrounding space, creating a connection between the subject and the background.

R. Brunori is a painter who appears to have a very traditional conception of painting, essentially based on a complete mimesis of the subject expressed through figurative language. Furthermore, the artist knows how to enliven his works with a certain light pictorialism that subtly blurs the figures.
