The Marriage

The vaguely archaic flavour of the figures and the special way they are executed provide the canvases by Campigli, who was fond of the art of ancient civilizations, with a dreamy dimension that was an absolute novelty for the art of the time. The surface of the canvas, typical for its thick paint with irregular scratches, features stylized yet solid and plump female figures. Central in this group is the bride in a frontal and imposing pose.
