Felice Casorati
Bathers in Capri - Etching by Felice Casorati - 1950s

1950s

About the Item

Bathers in Capri is an original etching realized by the Italian artist Felice Casorati (1883-1963) in 1950s. Hand-signed on the lower left "F. Casorati" and numbered on the lower right in pencil. Edition 79/80 prints. Impression in very good conditions, minor folds and damages on edges. Beautiful artwork representing one of Casorati's favorite themes, that is human bodies and nudes through confident strokes, Nudes was one of the classic academic themes and a constant in Casorati's artworks. The attention to the human body, often depicted in its nudity, represents one of the most analyzed motifs by the Italian artist throughout his creative life. "The nude of a woman becomes an almost obsessive and repeated presence within her work; it is the symbol of a rational search. The motto - Numerus, mensura, pondus -, which in its brevity gives us perhaps the closest intimate portrait of the man and the artist, helping us also to find the key to decode the mental attitude of his painting, proposes mathematical rules in the construction of the body that Casorati knows well and uses almost as mental schemes to construct his figures inside the studio space or a room" writes Claudia Gianferrari. Felice Casorati was an important Italian painter, sculptor and printmaker. He was an exponent of the “Ritorno all’ordine”movement in 1920s. After 1930, his palette brightened, as you can see on this beautiful oil painting dated 1955.
