Artist: Enrico Boggione (Turin, 1889 - 1985)
Dimensions: 32 x 27 cm (excluding frame)
Materials: Oil on cardboard
A refined pictorial work executed with the oil on cardboard technique, depicting a still life composition. The painting presents a harmonious arrangement of everyday objects, among which a metal coffee pot, a bottle, and several fruits stand out, rendered with a textured and vibrant brushstroke.
From a formal point of view, the work is distinguished by a skillful use of chiaroscuro contrasts and a color palette based on cool and earthy tones, typical of the Turin master's figurative research. The volumetric construction of the objects reveals a solid academic foundation combined with a post-impressionist sensibility.
Enrico Boggione was a prominent figure in the Piedmontese art scene of the 20th century, known for his ability to ennoble humble subjects through intimate light and accomplished pictorial execution.
The work is signed by the artist in the lower left corner. It is in excellent condition, set within a gilded frame with a fabric passe-partout that enhances its chromatic depth.
