Charming oil on canvas painted in 1970 by the Ravenna artist Giampaolo Masotti (1960–2012), signed lower left.
The work depicts a scene of everyday life in an Italian village, with a man seated in the foreground, intent on reading or drawing, immersed in a serene and contemplative atmosphere. The village setting, with its warm-toned houses, stone stairways and textured brushstrokes, evokes a rural and intimate Italy, filtered through the expressive gaze of the artist.
The composition, dynamic and rich in pictorial matter, stands out for its energetic use of colour and light. The painting is presented in a wooden frame with linen passepartout.
