About the Item
Ready for some self-reflection? Intriguing hints about this striking painting’s origin, handwritten on the reverse, could get you started. “Due Appetiti” di Vita suggests that two appetites, or two passions, such as work and family, in one’s life can conflict. But they can also combine to drive it forward. Considering the perfect in-air balance maintained by the moth, one might lean toward the latter interpretation, where paired forces combine to shape one’s motivations and resulting life experiences.
Whatever you decide, we do know that the work is by Italian artist Ferruccio Rosini, born in Livorno Italy in 1932, additionally indicated by the canvas' stretcher marked as being crafted in Livorno. But while you're on your internal journey, consider adding this piece to your collection for inspiration. And don't forget to take time for, as the Italians famously suggest, “il dolce far niente," to savor the sweetness of doing nothing.
