B. Milan - Untitled

Social themes in art began to gain prominence in the mid-19th century, coinciding with the spread of social questions throughout European societies. The work of painters such as Millet and Daumier, for example, favored subjects related to life in the fields, factory work, or strikes. In Italy, among the first painters to engage with social themes were Pellizza da Volpedo and, in the contemporary era, Renato Guttuso. In this lithograph, in particular, we note a marked political commitment, given the presence of the acronym on the red flag.

The work is an elegant graphic work. The highly balanced composition is based on a bold black line that, crossing the surface of the lithograph and intersecting with other lines, gives form to the subjects. These are particularly defined, both physically and, above all, visually. The predominant color is white, which, by contrast, makes the red of the flags stand out more.

B. Milano is an artist who focuses on politically charged subjects. Formally, he possesses a remarkable drawing technique that allows him to create graphic works in which the subjects have a strong expressive and volumetric connotation.
