Original artwork description:

**Title:** *Le ultime luci*
**Artist:** Antonino Puliafico (1969, Sicily)
**Medium:** Oil on canvas, palette-knife impasto
**Size:** 95 × 95 cm
**Year:** 2025

This fiery twilight cityscape glows with Puliafico’s signature palette-knife energy. Volcanic crimsons and cobalt-night blues whirl overhead, converging in a spiral sun that sinks behind an imagined skyline. Below, vertical blades of saffron, jade and ivory cascade like skyscrapers mirrored in a nocturnal canal, each ridged stroke catching ambient light and giving the surface kinetic depth. The square format frames an electric dialogue between nature and architecture, evoking Kandinsky’s synesthetic colour theory while remaining unmistakably Mediterranean. Collectors searching for **palette-knife abstract cityscape**, **expressionist night painting** and **contemporary Italian art** will find *Le ultime luci* a compelling centrepiece for modern interiors, boutique hotels or corporate lobbies.

Worldwide shipment is handled in a custom wooden crate, fully insured and entrusted to specialist fine-art couriers; certificate of authenticity included, ready to hang on arrival.

Materials used:

First-rate oil colors of the Florentine brand "DI VOLO" applied with spatula were used for the painting, and the pictorial support is a cottono canvas pre-painted for oil painting with Gesso and Glue.
