{"product_id":"leonardo-dudreville-gerani","title":"Leonardo Dudreville - Geraniums","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eFlowers as a subject in themselves began to appear in still lifes, a genre that emerged in the early 17th century. Subsequently, painters, especially the Impressionists, increasingly focused on the floral world as an extraordinary opportunity to capture vibrant colors and light. Thus, flowers began to appear not only in vases, but also immersed in their natural landscape. While initially a pretext for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art, the subject of flowers also becomes a way of interpreting reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe painting is part of a series of small oil paintings on plywood in which Leonardo Dudreville, one of the leading proponents of the Novecento movement, distances himself from the exaltation of plasticity and a return to order in painting. Indeed, as we can see in this work, the subject is created with a rapid, extremely synthetic technique, almost like a watercolor. All the various elements are constructed exclusively through color with a few quick brushstrokes. The result is a representation charged with freshness and immediacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eLeonardo Dudreville was born in Venice in 1885 and died in Ghiffa in 1976. He was one of the initiators and most important exponents of the Novecento movement. He trained at the Brera Academy, where he came into contact with the Divisionist movement. Around the 1910s, he became interested in Futurism through his association with Umberto Boccioni. In 1919, he finally decided to return to classical and hyperrealist figuration, joining Margherita Sarfatti's group. In 1922, he was among the founders of the Novecento movement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Isoli Italo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56212712915330,"sku":"IISO006","price":4000.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/Im5magine.jpg?v=1768406624","url":"https:\/\/venderequadri.it\/en\/products\/leonardo-dudreville-gerani","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
