Il bevitore

Umberto Boccioni1914

Museo del Novecento
Milan, Italy

This artwork goes back to subjects that Boccioni had studied in the past - 'vie moderne', cafés and taverns - while evoking a pronounced allusion to the 'absinth drinkers' of the Impressionists, seen here in the slouched figure, dozing off his alcoholic stupor.
