Oil painting on canvas. Signed, dated 1872 and localized Parma at the bottom right. It is a great winter landscape of strong scenic impact, which is well part of the scenographic traditionalism proper to the painting of mentor Silvani, native artist of Traversetolo (Parma), landscape painter but also known as a scenographer. In the scene, sprayed of the white of a short snowfall that creates that typical rarefied and silent winter atmosphere, between bare and dry trees, it winds a dirt road traveled by a wayfarer; On the right a construction diluted with the sink where a woman draws water; At the center a column on which a sacred image is mounted. Formalized in his hometown, Silvani participated in the exposures of Parma's encouragement since 1864, and is mainly in his city that his works are found today (at the Municipality of Parma, the National Gallery, the Paolo Toschi artistic high school); He also exhibited also in Milan (1872) and Florence (1875). Formal himself as a scenographer at the School of Gerolamo Magnani, Silvani carried out this assignment in Parma but also in Venice starting from 1871. His pictorial production, which includes mainly rural landscapes of the Parma countryside, is always characterized by loyalty to the real data. The work proposed here is presented in a coeval frame. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
