Original artwork description:

Title: Notte Veneziana
Artist: Antonino Puliafico (1969, Sicily)
Medium: Oil on canvas, palette‑knife impasto
Size: 79 × 94 cm
Year: 2025

A nocturnal lagoon blazes with electric blues and molten golds, capturing Venice long after the tourists sleep. Puliafico attacks the surface with virtuoso knife strokes, stacking vertical shards of ivory and violet that evoke gondola masts and palazzi while cobalt arcs sweep across the sky like wind‑whipped tides. Scarlet and citron flashes punctuate the darkness, suggesting lanterns flickering on distant quays. Each impasto ridge refracts ambient light, turning the painting into a living prism that commands attention in contemporary living rooms, boutique foyers or executive suites. Echoes of Turner’s twilight atmospheres meet the raw immediacy of Neo‑Expressionism, yet the work remains unmistakably Puliafico—his Mediterranean dynamism distilled into an urban night. Collectors searching palette‑knife abstract Venetian night, modern Italian painting and investment‑grade wall art will recognise the upward trajectory of this Sicilian master.

Worldwide shipping in a custom wooden crate, fully insured and entrusted to specialist fine‑art couriers; certificate of authenticity included—safe arrival guaranteed, ready to hang.

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.
