On a hot summer day in Tuscany, I went to Gorgiti, a low mountain village completely immersed in the Tuscan woods. I had painted the pools and the natural waterfall on the slopes of the village many times, and this time I was looking for something different. A small glimpse offered by a tiny path in the wood caught my attention and my curiosity. To paint it, I had to place my easel and stool in the middle of a thorny blackberry bush. Being careful of the thorns, I quickly painted a reddish-brown underpaint, let it dry a bit, and then painted most of the painting alla prima in a short time. Once home, I waited for it to dry completely and tried to evoke the atmosphere of the place by adding color glazes and final details. This painting is made on a plywood poplar board, prepared by the artist with traditional "gesso" primer made of rabbit-skin glue and Bologna gypsum. After complete drying, it was finished and protected with varnish. The board is also painted on the edges. It already has a hook and can be hung with or without a frame. It is sold without a frame. Certificate of authenticity included.

Enrico Giulia (1983) was born in Rome - Italy, where he still lives, and received his education across Italy, the Netherlands and Japan. His keen humanistic interests led him to obtain a PhD in Cultures of Africa and Asia (2013) while focusing on philosophy and religions. These are reflected in his aesthetic and poetic research in painting. Said research is for him an instrument of exploration and representation of what escapes univocal verbal definitions, such as the unfathomable character of being, and of the qualities of the sacred. Deeply fascinated by the Symbolist movement of painting, Enrico is currently focusing on creating images from personal visions and inner imagery. In order to do this, he draws inspiration from natural places and often starts his new paintings en plein air, surrounded by unspoiled nature, and finishes them in the studio . His subject matter mainly revolves around the themes of the unfathomable and the indecipherable in the individual and in nature, and in the relationship between the two. Enrico is an enthusiastic supporter of the recent revival of traditional painting techniques. Embracing this, he constantly studies, reproduces and draws inspiration from the great oil Masters in art history: from Raphael, Leonardo and Titian, to Rembrandt, Corot and Waterhouse. A lover of gentle lines and harmony in shapes and colours, he considers himself to be an aesthete, and is always looking to create shapes and compositions that please the eye and invite the mind to explore and wander.
