Il ponte nuovo

Fortunato Teodorani (Cesena, 1888 - 1960) - Oil on cartoon; cm 31,5 x 42

In this landscaped view Teodorani clearly shows a clever use of colour and precision in the drawing.

The painting, signed and dated 1925, in the lower left part, rappresents a view of Cesena of the new bridge, with Ponte Vecchio, St.Rocco's Church, Garampo Hill and The Malatestian Fortress in the distance.

The moment chosen by the artist for the picture is dusk, when the pinkish light illuminates the landscape, contrasting with the cold colours of the sky and the water. Keeping strictly to his realist style Teodorani manages to exhalt the beauty and the colour of nature.
