Trevi Olives-Original size print on canvas (70x100cm)

Oil on canvas (70 x 100cm)

Trevi is in Umbria between Foligno and Spoleto just off the SS3 and one of its claims to fame (apart from having been painted by me) is that it has a lot of original Roman mosaic road paving. If you are a follower of my work you'll have noticed that I haven't painted landscapes in this classical sense. I have the opinion that it's very hard to capture the majesty of open country without creating a mythical looking painting. With this early sunset I wanted depth (hence the olive grove) but make the Trevi the centre piece. I also wanted the sky to be tall, hence painted the landscape in portrait. Of course I have a few characters resting under the olive trees, it's sunset and olive picking season so I'm sure they deserved it. I rather like it.

Extra Comments on Delivery and My Limited Edition Prints

The prints quoted above are limited editions and unless otherwise requested, are sold stretched over a wooden frame ready to be hung. Editions are limited to 5 full size prints and 30 half sized prints. This series is a 'Relief Geclee', which is a technique I've been working on where I apply a very thick, textured clear acrylic coat to the print. This captures the lights in a similar way to the original, produces an individual textured effect and deepens the colours in the print. The result is a very good reproduction of the original.
