The landscape has always been the protagonist in artistic research, both as a setting, as a background, but also as a subject itself. The naturalistic description of the landscape was, over the centuries, an aspiration for the artist. Each historical period has given its own interpretation of the landscape contributing to the evolution of its description: first with a research on space, through the Brunelleschian perspective in the first Renaissance, then on the atmospheric surrender, in the sixteenth century, up to the representation of each individual vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.
Even through this work of graphics we can see the extraordinary technical value of Michele Cascella's work, the whole structure is determined by a very complicated, almost divisionist, who gives shape to things, creates volumes, measures space and, of course, records every smaller light and chromatic perception. The result is a composition that, in addition to showing a great skill from the point of view of the drawing, identifies the vibrations of light on objects and their interaction in the atmosphere.
Michele Cascella (Ortona 1892-Milan 1989). Painter with a considerable career, his works are exhibited in important museums both in Italy and abroad. He has experienced numerous techniques but the highest leaders in his pictorial production has reached them with the theme of flowers. Cascella exerts a painting that, at the same time, is investigation. It remains faithful to a naturalistic rendering but its technique is voted to bring back to the painting all the chromatic and bright vibrations of the floral world.
