Silvana Cenni 1922

"Silvana Cenni" (1922) by Felice Casorati is a striking example of the artist's distinctive style. The painting depicts a young woman, Silvana Cenni, seated in a chair by a window, with a distant cityscape visible through the glass. Her pose is both relaxed and slightly aloof, reflecting a sense of introspection and solitude. The composition emphasizes the figure's stillness and serenity, with strong, geometric forms and a limited palette of muted colors. Casorati's work is characterized by its exploration of themes of femininity, interiority, and the human condition. This painting, like much of his oeuvre, evokes a timeless atmosphere of contemplation and quiet beauty.
