Oil painting on canvas, size 39x37 cm.
Painted in 1957 after a trip to Italy and Jugoslavia (still communist and under President Tito). With friends from art school we had bought an old London taxi and spent 6 weeks driving through Europe. Tried to reach Greece but turned back when we reached Belgrade (the roads south were all unmetalled!) Spent an extra 2 weeks in Italy; the italian lakes and then on to Florence.
I still have the sketchbook I bought in Italy (Album da disegno "spirale") and am showing the drawing from which I made this painting.
Painted in traditional style; first the drawing on the canvas, underpainted in monochrome and finished with glazes of colour. A technique used during the Italian Renaissance. A lengthy process because its necessary to wait for each glaze to dry, but capable of rich, deep colour, which can't be achieved with direct painting.
