Strizzate Napoli Oblunga

This image reminds us of the bright and bustling streets in the historic centre of Naples that are so near to that bright blue Mediterranean.

However, it is one of the wonderfully original Richard Weston strizzatte images using a technique originated by Rennaisance painters.

Here the image has been created by squeezing (that's what strizzate means in Italian) acrylic paints between glass sheets, then scanning them at high resolution, so that what you are seeing is a tiny fraction of mixed paints.

Art, nature and technology combined: that's what we're all about.

They were previously sold by Fortnum & Mason in their superb scarf hall, and are here offered at £100 off the original retail price.
