La casa abbandonata 1930

"La casa abbandonata" ("The Abandoned House") is a 1930 painting by Italian artist Carlo Carra (1881-1966). The painting features a dilapidated, white house with broken windows, surrounded by lush greenery, including a large tree and a grove of cypress trees. The scene evokes a sense of solitude and melancholy, characteristic of Carra's later works, which explored themes of the Italian countryside and the passing of time. The muted colors and simplified forms contribute to the painting's serene and introspective mood.
