About the Item
The artwork “Crátera”, rendered in oil on linen mounted on panel in a panoramic format, invites viewers to immerse themselves in an urban landscape that comes to life at dawn. The city, outlined in silhouette, reveals the majesty of its old buildings, houses with rooftops, a prominent tower, and a balcony adorned with a streetlamp. This fragment of the ancient city becomes a silent witness to the transition between darkness and light that marks the beginning of the day. The sky, painted in ochre tones with clouds tinged in shades of green, creates a unique atmosphere, merging with a shadowy space that provides an intriguing backdrop. It is in this dimly lit space that the crater emerges, illuminated from above, capturing the viewer’s attention. The crater, as the central element of the composition, reveals an intricate and detailed scene of centauromachy. This mythological theme, depicting the battle between centaurs and humans, adds a symbolic layer to the piece. The fusion of urban and mythological elements in “Crátera” creates a unique visual narrative that invites reflection. The duality between the ancient and the mythological, along with the transition from darkness to light, provides a rich terrain for interpretation, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the work and discover their own connections and meanings.
