Alberto Magnelli's 'The Readers' depicts two women with simplified forms and bold outlines. The painting features a restrained colour palette and a geometric approach to figuration, characteristic of Magnelli's style.
Alberto Magnelli (1888-1971) was an Italian artist, regarded as one of the founders of abstract art in Italy. Although he experimented with different styles throughout his career, he is best known for his geometric abstractions and later figurative works. Magnelli's art often explores the relationship between form, colour, and space, reflecting a concern with the fundamental elements of visual expression. His work bridges the gap between early abstract movements and post-war abstraction. 'The Readers' presents two women in an outdoor setting. The figures are rendered with simplified forms and bold outlines, characteristic of Magnelli's approach to figuration. One woman, seen from the front, wears a tan coat and holds a book. The other, viewed from the back, is dressed in white and also holds a book. Behind them, a building is depicted in a similarly simplified style, with flat planes of colour defining its structure. The background features a suggestion of mountains and sky, creating a sense of depth despite the overall flatness of the composition. The painting's colour palette is restrained, with muted tones of tan, white, and red dominating the scene.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
