Landscape (mountains) 1916

Umberto Boccioni's "Landscape (mountains)" from 1916, painted just months before his untimely death, is an example of his distinctive style within the Italian Futurist movement. The painting uses bold, vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes to capture the energy and movement of the natural world. The trees are depicted as a flurry of color and line, while the distant mountains are rendered in a more abstract form, suggesting the blurred vision of speed. This work exemplifies Boccioni's exploration of the dynamism of modern life and its impact on the perception of nature.
