"The Lens, the Candlestick, and the Book" is an oil on canvas that embodies Maxmilian Ciccone's continuous pursuit of pictorial realism, aiming to bring reality back to life through meticulous detail. Ciccone carefully selects the subjects of his works, blending a love for classical art with a profound interest in the contemporary.
In this composition, we find a magnifying glass, an ornate candlestick, and an open book, symbols of knowledge, light, and introspection. The magnifying glass is a recurring element in Ciccone's paintings, representing the means to observe the minutest details that the artist loves to reproduce with unique pictorial sensitivity.
The colors and tones are chosen with extreme care, creating a perfect balance between subject and representation. The golden candlestick, with its intricate details, stands majestically beside the open book, whose texts invite the viewer to delve into reading. The figure of the spirit in the background adds a touch of mystery and depth to the piece.
This artwork is not only a testament to Ciccone's technical mastery but also an invitation to explore the world through the lens of curiosity and contemplation. This piece has an attribution mark,
