In the painting Fortress in Verona, the viewer’s attention is drawn by the bold framing and absence of three-dimensionality. The composition is maintained in pure, intense colours, highlighting the effect of the harsh Italian sun. Jan Stanisławski (1860-1907) captured here the languorous atmosphere prevalent in many small Italian towns.
