"Memories of Travel" (1911) by Italian Futurist painter Gino Severini exemplifies the movement's fascination with speed and modernity. The painting's fragmented composition, a hallmark of Futurism, depicts a bustling urban scene featuring a train, a bus, and figures in motion, all rendered in vibrant, fragmented brushstrokes that evoke a sense of dynamic energy. This chaotic, yet captivating composition epitomizes the Futurists' celebration of the dynamism of the modern world.
