artistic embellishments, mural painting at Campello’s House, Venice “Tango”
It is a mural painting made in the house of Mrs. Francesca Campello in Venice. She is passionate about dance and in particular tango, Mrs. Campello always wanted to have with her a dedication to the profond Argentine, Rioplatense, Uruguayan and French tradition.
The composition represents three artists, two dancers intent on the tango choreography and a woman sitting next to her while she plays the bandoneon, a characteristic instrument of the milonguero tradition. The draping of the black shawl is particular and intense, which in the past was the most common accessory of venetian women.
The warm and lively shades highlight the moment of intense passion and creative tension while the starry sky recalls the desire for freedom and to fly high.
The mural was painted in a venetian residence a few steps from Piazza San Marco, in the heart of the historic city in a context of high, elegant, refined and sober tenor. With its chromatic power, the “tango” mural stands out even if the shades match those of the premises.
