Description : Natura morta

Oil painting on canvas. Signed lower right. On the back the title and declaration of authenticity signed by the artist. Saverio Terruso, a painter of essentially Mediterranean temperament, culturally and emotionally linked to his homeland, Sicily, includes among his production a wide range of works that aim to convey the authentic charm of a rural world that is now on the verge of disappear permanently; in them mainly rural characters are represented, such as farmers with caps, at work or in a restaurant, or melancholic women locked in their shawls, bent over their daily activities at home, or protagonists of processions. His painting is characterized by rather dramatic tones, with strong distorting tensions and very bright and often contrasting colours. This work proposes a less frequent subject, a still life, but retains the reference to peasant life in the choice to reproduce the vegetables typical of the peasant table (turnips, pumpkin, cabbage, garlic), in the characteristic style of Terruso, both in the chromatic choices than in the representative mode. The work is presented in a frame.

Artistic technique: Painting

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.

Technical specification: Oil on Canvas

The oil painting is a painting technique using powder pigments mixed with bases in inert and oils.
