Notturno, Chopin, D’Annunzio and the search for beauty:
Contemporary to the search for romanticism as in the art of representation, Chopin is Intimacy in music like the “improvised” artists of the nineteenth century. In their homes, like D’Annunzio’s Sperelli told to chisel, paint or simply be in search of beauty through this world.
The representational art that most identifies with the idea of the “homemade” artist is etching, a typical sign of that century.
The most poetic and intimate image, in front of which every man no longer feels alone, is nature. Here the Sibillini mountains are represented at the full moon – Authentic reproduction by the engraver artist Raffale Pellizzari
