Vittorio Postiglione - Untitled

Animal portraits in art have ancient origins, even appearing in primitive cave paintings. For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era.

The painter Vittorio Postiglione's work is best known for his cityscapes, but even in this composition featuring animals, he maintains the same painterly quality that distinguishes him. The subject is always treated with the brush tip, with an almost calligraphic delicacy. Everything is based on color, within a substantially two-dimensional surface. Each hue is applied compactly, triggering a play of balance and contrast within the composition's economy.

Vittorio Postiglione is a painter who has devoted himself almost exclusively to urban landscapes, which he created with a highly personal style tending towards Expressionism.
