Giuseppe Marchetta - Botticelle

The painting 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 style of Roman artist Giuseppe Marchetta manages to combine realism and surrealism in a highly personal fusion. The painter always seeks out glimpses of real life, episodes of everyday life, for his subjects. But the way these subjects are treated transcends into a dreamlike dimension. Marchetta's technique, to this end, consists of small touches of color, which simultaneously construct the objects but render them immaterial. Everything is lost in a decontextualized atmosphere, and the color palette is based on pastel hues.

Giuseppe Marchetta is a Roman painter who is part of the Via Margutta group. His entire output is characterized by real images, taken from the capital. These images, however, are treated in an immaterial manner thanks to the artist's distinctive brushstroke technique.
