"Calcio (Soccer)" is a 1958 woodcut by American artist Clare Romano (1922-2017). The print depicts four figures engaged in a lively game of soccer, with a large ball prominently featured in the upper portion of the composition. Romano's characteristic bold lines and stark contrasts create a dynamic and expressive scene that captures the energy and excitement of the sport. "Calcio (Soccer)" is a prime example of Romano's distinctive style, which often drew inspiration from everyday life and the human condition.
