Italian Oil Painting on Canvas Portrait of Onofrio Ferrara 1910

About the Item

Oil painting on canvas of a portrait of a liberty lady, created by Onofrio Ferrara (Naples 1860 - 1914) in the early years of the 20th century. Ø cm 73 h cm 113 Art Nouveau portraits are characterized by their organic shapes, flowing lines and naturalistic motifs. This artistic movement, which flourished in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, sought to break away from the rigid classical styles of the past. The figures are often depicted with flowing curves and wavy lines, imitating the natural world. Flowers, plants and other natural elements are often incorporated into the composition. Intricate patterns and decorative details are often used to enhance the overall aesthetic. Among the famous Art Nouveau portraitists we find: Gustav Klimt: Known for his opulent and sensual portraits, Klimt was a leading figure of the Art Nouveau movement. Alphonse Mucha: Mucha's portraits are characterized by their decorative style and often depict beautiful women surrounded by floral motifs. Aubrey Beardsley: Beardsley's portraits are often dark and mysterious, with a strong emphasis on line and pattern.
