THE GOLDEN AGE is a series of paintings that transcends time and demonstrates the greatness of human evolution in an era marked by transformational changes in industry, technology, art, architecture... The paintings in the series seem to merge into a single narrative plot, which, although fictional, is has a palpable realism, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a realm reminiscent of Hayao Miyazaki's enchanting anime. The canvases of the series become a portal to a world where the past, present and future converge in a celebration of human Ingenuity and Talent, Progress and the enduring Spirit of Joy.
The name itself speaks volumes... The canvas depicts a European city of the early 20th century in its morning bliss, the bliss of waking up: soft lighting, silhouettes of churches in a lilac haze, the city hall with a tower as a symbol of city power, the quiet waters of the canal with marvelous reflections of ships moored to the pier... A little more and the city will begin to crumble, the first trams will rustle, the first carriages will set off from the stables, its inhabitants will pour into the streets of the city. Looking at the picture, which feels like you are in the GOLDEN AGE, you are about to feel the aroma of morning coffee wafting from the opening cafes and the cry of the port gulls.
The journey takes you...
