World - 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 deeply with social themes were Pellizza da Volpedo and, in the contemporary era, Renato Guttuso.

In this painting, in which Edmondo Giuliani depicts work and life in the fields, he creates a composition that relies heavily on color expressionism. The subjects are synthetic, on a flat, two-dimensional surface. This surface is divided into areas of color in an almost compact manner, leaving little room for painterly effects. Everything, therefore, is constructed through color, which determines the overall balance of the composition.

Edmondo Giuliani was a painter originally from Jesi, where he was born in 1915 and passed away in 2007. Essentially self-taught and a street painter, as he liked to call himself. A very popular figure in his hometown (of which he received honorary citizenship in 2000), he nevertheless exhibited his work in various shows in Italy and abroad. Only late in life did he attend painting courses at the Academy of Fine Arts in Macerata.
