SOGLIANO
1978, 50x70cm, Glossy oil on canvas
The countryside of Sogliano al Rubicone (Italy) and the town above. The farmers transporting their goods. Painting created with a particular and innovative technique: many points of color.
The work “Sogliano,” created in 1978 with glossy oil on canvas, is a celebration of rural beauty and peasant life in the heart of Italy. The painting portrays a bucolic landscape, where nature and man’s work merge in a harmony of colors and details.
A panorama between nature and tradition:
In the foreground, the scene comes alive with the daily life of farmers, intent on transporting their goods:
- A man drives a horse-drawn cart, loaded with sacks full of harvest.
- In the center, a couple of farmers laboriously transport a body wrapped in a yellow cloth, an element that adds mystery and depth to the scene.
- On the right, a cow and some goats graze in a field, emphasizing the connection with the land and livestock.
The dirt path that crosses the painting gently guides us through the scene, leading our gaze towards the small town perched on the hill.
Sogliano al Rubicone: the village among the hills
In the background, the village of Sogliano al Rubicone, with its light-colored buildings and red roofs, emerges from the green expanse of hills. The two towers, probably belonging to churches and historic buildings, stand out in the blue sky, becoming the focal point of the entire composition.
An innovative and evocative technique:
The work is distinguished by a particular and innovative technique, characterized by a multitude of points of color that give liveliness and depth to the landscape. The field in the foreground is a triumph of small brushstrokes that, with an almost impressionist effect, recreate the movement of the grass and the light playing on the vegetation.
A work that tells the past:
“Sogliano” is not just a representation of the landscape, but a tribute to the simple and authentic life of the peasant world. The artist invites us to immerse ourselves in this scene from a past time, in which working the land marked the days and the relationship with nature was essential for survival. With its accurate details and vibrant technique, this painting captures the serenity, sacrifice, and beauty of rural life, conveying a sense of nostalgia and admiration for a world that, although distant, continues to live in the collective memory.
