"Through the Clouds: The Magic of Stories in the Heavenly Realm" Oil on cardboard In this oil landscape painting, we immerse ourselves in the wondrous world of the sky and experience the emotional impact of its colors. The composition is dominated by a cloud that swiftly ascends towards the heights, touching the beautiful blue expanse above. The cloud becomes the protagonist and storyteller of this artwork, reflecting everything hidden beyond the horizon. The viewer, without seeing or knowing what lies beyond that horizon, completes the picture in their imagination, envisioning forests, lakes, and other enigmatic shapes concealed within the cloud's reflections. The cloud serves as a portal to a realm of fantasies and dreams, where the viewer can soar high above the cloud...

The Palazzo Chigi (in which the film-maker Luchino Visconti would film a large part of The Leopard a century later) and the adjoining church are seen from the bottom of the ravine that surrounds the town. This drawing is a moving testimony to the attraction of the city for artists of the Romantic period, who established in Ariccia a vivid artists' colony. 1. Achille Bénouville...

Neapolitan gouaches appeared in the eighteenth century when tourism in the Naples area was developing: the discoveries of Herculaneum and Pompeii made this city a mandatory stop on the Grand Tour, the journey made by wealthy Europeans to complete their education. Generally small in size for ease of transport and affordable in price, these gouaches were the ideal travel souvenir that these tourists of the early days were bringing back to capture the idyllic landscapes they had discovered during their journey and to share them with family and friends upon their return at home. The Bay of Naples and the eruptions of Vesuvius are the favourite themes of these views. Here we have a view of the Ovo Castle, which was rebuilt on the island of Partenope, in the middle of the Bay of Naples and about a hundred metres from the shore by the Normans in the 12th century on antique ruins...

Netherlands, 1817-1891 Cornelis Springer (Amsterdam, May 25, 1817 - Hilversum, February 20, 1891) was born as the fourth son of carpenter and contractor Willem Springer.
