A beautiful woman sits at an open window, gazing down at a small bird who has landed nearby in this serene portrait by Charles Levier. Warm orange tones are played off their complements in shades of blue, the artist utilizing several different layers of oils to create a subtle and relaxed view of a spring day near the sea. Beyond the window a small chapel sits on a peninsula, surrounded tranquil blue waters. This work, like many of Levier's, belongs to the French figurative movement of the Glorious Thirty (Les Trente Glorieuses) - the golden period of thirty years after WWII which were a time of great hope and prosperity in France. Inspired by Hollywood cinema, Charles Levier sought harmony in composition and purity of color and form. His said that his creations represented "a light and delicate world, of dark and subtle shades and colors." Levier worked in a somewhat abstracted, cubist style. Additionally he often employed the French technique of "cloisonnism" (after the French for "partition"), a style of post-Impressionist painting with bold and flat forms separated by dark contours, also seen in this work. The term was coined by critic Edouard Dujardin on the occasion of the Salon des Indépendants, in March 1888 and was commonly used by artists like Émile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, Paul...

About the painting: Small glimpse of an abstract post-impressionist style landscape of EUR '42, a district built in Rome in 1940, with large white marble facades struck by the light and shadows of the foliage of the city's pines. The artist's focus is on architecture and its shadows, the contrast between solids and voids, between darkness and light. A wonderful contrast that takes the person back to Italy, to one of the most beautiful neighborhoods of the capital. Created in 2012, the painting aims to revive the tranquility of Italian landscapes, all on a 50 x 150 canvas. About the artist: Laura Federici is an artist and architect based in Rome, Italy.
