Description
The Four Plane Trees in Black and White is an original work created in black and white watercolor, ink and pencil on semi-rough paper (2026, Minusio, Switzerland). The maximum outer dimensions, including mat and without frame, are 40 × 30 cm.
In this black and white watercolor, the four historic plane trees of the Debarcadero in Locarno stand out in the foreground, captured from a close-up view. The massive trunks and intertwined branches emerge with strength, while the absence of color highlights the shapes, contrasts and textures of the bark.
The trees take on an almost sculptural presence and dominate the lakefront on a typical winter day on Lake Maggiore. An essential and poetic tribute to these iconic giants, symbols of memory and tenacity through the trials of time. Work sold with mat, without frame; ready to be framed.
