Autunno. Ritratto di Emilio Colombo 1909

"Autunno. Ritratto di Emilio Colombo" is a 1909 oil painting by Carlo Carra, an Italian artist known for his work in the Divisionist and Futurist movements. The portrait depicts Emilio Colombo, a prominent figure of the time, standing against a background of blurred, vibrant colors, indicative of Carra's signature style. The use of brushstrokes, which create a sense of movement and light, is characteristic of Divisionism, where color is separated into small dots to create a shimmering effect. This artwork exemplifies Carra's transition into Futurism, incorporating dynamic energy and capturing a moment in time through his innovative use of color and brushwork.
