About ‘Alpine Pasture, Giovanni Segantini’
Alpine Pasture, Giovanni Segantini
Alpine Pasture is Segantinis last monumental high alpine scene from his time in the Savognin region of Graubünden. To capture this lake he hiked for several hours each day, nevertheless he hasn’t nearly copied nature in this painting, in fact you will not find this vast space, the broad landscape or the mountain range if you visit this spot. Segantini however combines all these elements in a majestic almost cosmic view of the world. Fractures of light and shadow emphasize the horizontal format of the composition. A mountain crest bathed in sunlight runs along the entire width and conveys the impression of infinity – and at the same time the insignificance of human beings. The harshness and rigors of nature are reflected in the figure of the exhausted young shepherd, vibrating heath spreads over animals and vegetation.
