A Room with a View

Nostalgia

This is the view that I could admire exactly one year ago from the bow window in Edinburgh where I and my family were spending our Easter holidays. Although it is no longer my genre of painting, I didn’t want to waste the opportunity to indicate by signs the emotion of being in a city that I love so much. However, the artwork remained unfinished in the drawer: I didn’t paint the sky. It seemed that was more important to bring it into my heart than put it on paper.

Looking at the sky of London today I became overwhelmed with nostalgia for the sky of Edinburgh and for all the skies that I will see or see again, who knows when. Dust off this abandoned watercolour adding the sky was a gesture of respect for all those who can see the sky in these days only from the window, but also a yearning for hope for all the skies that awaiting us.
