Pietro Lazzari

Burnt Hope
1963

An abstract painting with a textured beige background featuring chaotic black brushstrokes that form a vague, city-like silhouette with a bright orange, textured circle resembling the sun in the upper right corner. The artwork has a sense of movement and energy, with the brushstrokes creating a reflection effect on the lower half of the canvas.
