Painting by Carlo Musso, "The Turin Market," oil on canvas, 1940s
Fine oil painting by Piedmontese painter Carlo Musso depicting the famous Porta Palazzo market in Turin.
Carlo Musso's production is distinguished by a landscape painting in which he seeks characteristic views, full of his own lyricism. Hence, therefore, the taste for the picturesque foreshortening, for the evocative framing. At the formal level, all this is resolved in an impressionistic pictorial doing, very moved and dynamic that guarantees freshness and executive immediacy. His brushwork, therefore, is characterized by a remarkably cursive touch, made up of sudden darts, effective in registering light vibrations on objects.
