The exhibition brings together around sixty paintings and forty drawings. From these works emanates a great sweetness, a calming of the present humor. The colors are tender, solar; it is a hymn to joy and innocence.
This parallel between two painters shows the richness of the interpretation of similar themes under the light of two talented souls yet so different both in their time and in their intrinsic nature.
A moment of pure poetry to be savored in all its delicacy like this cascading rain of roses emanating from the luminous star in the highest heavens.
