This is a metaphorical painting making a statement about Italy's current social and political crisis. I have been reading "The Dark Heart of Italy" by Tobias Jones which describes the post-war civil war that has been going on as fascist elements have reinserted themselves into the Italian state and secret services.  Here a smartly dressed couple is out for the evening passeggata (walk)  and they are confronted by an enormous green cinghali symbolizing all that is wrong with contemporary Italy.
