AMSTERDAM

This stunning oil painting captures the intricate architectural details of a historic building, showcasing a blend of vibrant colors and striking contrasts. The artwork focuses on the upper section of the facade, featuring ornate brickwork and classical decorative elements. In the center, a beautifully designed gable with a decorative finial draws the eye, while the carefully rendered windows reflect a sense of elegance and symmetry. The background incorporates soft, cloudy hues, enhancing the appeal of the architectural features and introducing an uplifting, serene mood.
This painting would be a perfect addition to a living room, study, or hallway, adding a touch of sophistication and historical charm. It pairs beautifully with modern or traditional furniture styles, bringing a focal point to the space while complementing other decorative elements. Consider placing it near natural light to highlight its vibrant colors and intricate details.

On his travels, the artist often makes notes and produces sketches and pictures of motifs that could later become paintings. In this case, Manuel Di Chiara concentrated on this typical facade of a building in Amsterdam. The painting was then realized by the artist in his second studio in Hamburg, Germany. The chosen technique is again acrylic paint, which is applied with brush and spatula without dilution. The architectural details were well implemented, with special attention being paid to the light illuminated by the building. The style is figurative and the painting was exhibited in several individual exhibitions by the artist in Germany and Italy.
