Horti Solis by Ruggero Vanni presents a captivating interplay of textures and colors, showcasing the artist’s mastery of plaster and pigment. The swirling strokes of radiant yellows, softened whites, and muted earth tones evoke the brilliance and warmth of sunlight over a textured surface. The title, which translates to Gardens of the Sun, perfectly complements the dynamic composition, suggesting an abstracted, sun-drenched landscape.
The vigorous application of plaster creates a rich, tactile depth, inviting comparisons to the impasto technique of Van Gogh but with a contemporary abstract twist. Unlike Van Gogh's more figurative depictions, Vanni’s abstraction captures the essence of light and warmth, allowing viewers to interpret the vibrancy of the sun's rays in their own unique way. This vibrant energy distinguishes the piece, offering both a visual and tactile exploration of natural elements translated into an abstract form.
