About the Item

A large, Mid-Century view of rooftops by Italian artist Miro Romagna. Bring the La Dolce Vita home with you! Image size: 27" x38 1/2". Framed size: 30 3/4" x 42 1/2". Miro Romagna was born in Venice in 1927, he has been part of the Italian artistic environment since 1949, when he became part of the Bevilacqua La Masa work in Venice and participated in eleven editions of collective exhibitions, obtaining prizes, recommendations and official purchases. In 1956 he won the third Marzotto prize at the IV National Painting Exhibition - Valdagno. Thanks to his strong artistic personality and the quality of his works, he soon became one of the greatest Venetian painters, achieving numerous awards and recognitions in Italy and abroad during his artistic maturity. Furthermore, he held courses in drawing, watercolor and various painting techniques at the International Graphics Center in Venice. Miro Romagna is considered one of the most significant painters of the post-impressionist movement known as "Venetian Chiarism". He is perhaps the last great witness of an era and a school to which the Venetian-lagoon art of the first and part of the second twentieth century attests. In fact, he began to acquire artistic skills as a boy, observing important painters at the easel, including Filippo De Pisis, Marco Novati, Carlo Cherubini and Neno Mori, of whom he was a privileged student for some years. From all of them, Romagna assimilated an extraordinary property of expressive language and the importance of the chromatic-luministic problem, two aspects that constitute the essence of his painting, visible in the admirable Venetian views. Romagna began exhibiting at the age of 15, with a work in the 1942 collective exhibition, held in the Sala Napoleonica together with the major Venetian painters of the time, including Cadorin and Dalla Zorza. The main aspect of his painting is to capture the secret soul of Venice in the elusive brightness. This is the most evident aspect in his works of recent years, composed mainly of Venetian views substantiated in the expressive emotion of different movements ranging from the vibrant romantic atmosphere at the beginning to the tonal rarefaction of visions in which light and color interpenetrate subtly in the air of infinite reflections, to flow into the explosive lighting of pure colors.
