The artwork, titled “Nuns and Landscape,” was created by Giacomo Balla in 1925 in Italy. Executed with oil on panel, this piece falls under the Futurism art movement. The artwork measures 38.5 by 50 centimeters and is a genre painting. It is currently housed in a private collection.
The artwork features a vivid and abstract portrayal of nuns amidst a stylized landscape. Dominated by geometric shapes and bold colors, it reflects the dynamic and forward-looking spirit characteristic of Futurism. The nuns, dressed in traditional habits, are set against a backdrop of interlocking forms and contrasting hues, invoking a sense of movement and modernity. This composition exemplifies Balla’s innovative approach to capturing everyday scenes in a futuristic aesthetic.
