Description

This painting testifies to the continuous and constant experimentation of the divided technique for Gaetano Previati. In fact, the artist seeks tones linked to a symbolic-ideal celebration of motherhood. We find the mother portrayed in a field of lilies - a very traditional symbol of purity - her head surrounded by the soft light of a halo. The long and thin brushstrokes create geometric contrasts between the slender verticality of the flowers and the horizontal lines that define the Madonna's robe and legs. The background is a dust of minute, evanescent touches.
