Oil painting on canvas. Signed lower right. On the back, this label from the "Ponte Rosso" gallery in Milan, from the "La Roggia" gallery in Palazzolo (Bs) and participation label in Clusone at the exhibition "50 years of painting by Ezio Pastorio" in 1988. On the frame, this additional title Pianura Padana, who was one of the subjects most represented by Pastorio. Here is a glimpse of the plain, with farmhouses, sparse trees and pools of water, all dominated by the snow-capped alpine peaks in the background, which blend chromatically with the sky, to create a continuum between the two parts into which it is divided landscape horizontally. Ezio Pastorio, originally from Cremona but transplanted to Valseriana after his studies, is considered "a great Italian master of the 20th century, who knew how to renew the artistic language of the landscape while maintaining a strong link with 19th century painting". His production is post-impressionist in nature, especially in the large landscape production that depicts the Po and Bergamo plains, the Venetian lagoon and some Parisian glimpses, admired during some travels. In his works, Pastorio creates suggestive atmospheres using infinite ranges of colours, which harmonize and sometimes even contrast, but always presented as a transparency which annuls the static nature of the representation and with a delicacy which expresses his devout religiosity towards nature and the created. The work, coming from a private collection, is presented in a frame.
