The Students, 1929
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Alberto Savinio that depicts a fantastical world where education takes on an otherworldly form. In this intriguing artwork, we are transported to a room filled with mystery and imagination. The composition showcases a group of students who seem to be suspended in mid-air, defying the laws of gravity. They float effortlessly around the room, their vibrant colors contrasting against the muted background. The artist's use of bold brushstrokes and rich hues adds depth and dimension to the scene. Savinio's surrealistic style shines through in "The Students" as he combines elements of fantasy with everyday objects. A window frames the backdrop, allowing glimpses into an unknown landscape beyond. Candy wrappers litter the floor, adding a whimsical touch to this dreamlike setting. This artwork invites us to ponder the role of education in our lives. It challenges traditional notions of learning by presenting it as something ethereal and magical. The flying students symbolize active engagement and curiosity within educational spaces. "The Students" is just one example of Savinio's mastery as an artist. His unique blend of modern art techniques and surrealist themes continues to captivate audiences today. This print serves as a reminder of his contributions to Italian art during the early twentieth century. Photo credit: Christie's Images (not for commercial use) via Bridgeman Images
