The idea of this painting was born to underline how the woman has characteristics and potential that appear as secrets for the man. The subject of the painting offers you an apple that represents the fruit of knowledge, that is, something that man needs to complete and is therefore attracted to it. The woman's head is covered by a lamp to emphasize that there is always something to know about her. The painting is a watercolor, very defined in the details of both the body and the dress. Made on rough grain watercolor paper.Dimensions 62 cm x 47 cm.
Alessandro Allegra's is a painting of extraordinary beauty, characterized by a delicate and perfectly calibrated use of color. Works of a superfine language, made of energy and elegance of representation. The figures emerge delicately and silently, in a game of hints and ethereal and nuanced visual counterpoints. It seems a will dictated by the figures themselves, rather than by the Artist, characters who reveal themselves to us observers as part of a silent and delicate theatrical draft.
