Franca Soldati - Pheasant

The "Still Life" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consists of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art the "Still Life" also becomes a way of interpreting reality, as it did for the Cubists or Giorgio Morandi.

The style of painter Franca Soldati displays a fully developed Post-Impressionist maturity. The composition is entirely compressed into the foreground, without any concessions to spatial depth. The painter's aim is not to capture the sensory aspect of objects, but to capture their very essence, their substance. To this end, the brushstroke, rich in texture, intervenes, fleshing out the objects, capturing the vibrations of light and life within them. The brushstroke, then, has a strongly structural function; the touches of color are arranged on different levels to construct the volumes. In terms of color, painter Franca Soldati stands out for her choice of bright and vibrant hues.

Painter Franca Soldati is an artist who primarily works in the still life genre. Her artistic language is based on a profound meditation on Post-Impressionism, which she reworks with a new structural function of brushwork and color.
