This work is part of the series dedicated to the beauty of Mediterranean women, vaunted by poets and artists of every nation over the centuries. A sensual Odalisque , with gentle and graceful movements, observes us, sitting on a soft red fabric. Behind him, a drape opens into a nocturnal landscape, where only the moon shines. This mysterious figure fascinate the observer with his natural pose and her sense of gentle eroticism. Made with oil paints, the work is endowed with a strong chromatic impact and wants to be a tribute to the style of the artist's master, Salvatore Fiume.
The canvas is signed by the artist at the bottom right.
1961 Pavia, Italy
Carlo Massimo Franchi (Pavia 1961) graduated at Brera Accademy, where he knew his Master Salvatore Fiume. His early works are strongly influenced by Fiume. The series called Mediterranean women is the best example: sensual women with soft curves, in Oriental atmospheres.
During the later period his style changes in a painting characterized by bright and flat colours. He realizes many works on commission and the series of Kaleidos, in which Cubist influences and the refined line of classical Greek art are mixed up.
He exhibits his works in many Italian and foreign cities (Milan, Turin, Palermo... San Francisco, Los ANgeles, Las Vegas...).
Now he lived and works in Novara.
