1931
Maurice Denis transports us to the sun-drenched hills of Fiesole, Italy, in this vibrant 1931 landscape. The scene is a charming patchwork of golden buildings, terracotta roofs, and tall, dark cypress trees climbing up a lush green hillside towards a fortress at the very top. As a founding member of the Nabis group, Denis was known for his decorative style and flat planes of color, which you can see in the simplified shapes of the houses and the textured, almost mosaic-like foliage. It feels like a peaceful, timeless snapshot of the Tuscan countryside, inviting the viewer to take a stroll up that winding road.
