Introduction to the painting:

His still lifes are the greatest realization of his intellectual being; rarefied, rigorous objects, apotheosis of subtraction, objects that interact with each other in a sort of intimate dialogue. Although Morandi is primarily famous for his still lifes, his landscapes are equally significant and an expression of the soul of a intellectual.

Fondazza's courtyard dated 1954 fully represents this essence. Morandi painted throughout his life in his studio on Via Fondazza in Bologna, a place of affection, his favorite home where he lived intimately and in.

Rendered for solids and geometries in the contrast of light-, the painting depicts the glimpse of a view of the courtyard from the window of his studio. The houses in the distance stand out against a soft sky, the left side is occupied by a wall of the building that prevents a complete view of the landscape, almost like the hedge in Leopardi's L'infinito, another lonely intellectual and very important figure of Italian Romanticism, and one of Morandi's favorite poets.

Machine translation:

His still lifes are the greatest embodiment of his lonely intellectual. Rare, rigorous objects, the deification of subtraction, objects that interact in an intimate dialogue. Although Morandi is primarily known for his still lifes, his landscapes are just as important, expressions of the soul of a lonely intellectual.

The courtyard of Fondazza, built in 1954, embodies this essence. Morandi spent his life painting in his studio in Via Fondazza, Bologna, a loving place and his favorite home, where he lived intimately and alone.

The painting, based on solid and geometric figures in contrast of light and shadow, depicts the view of the courtyard glimpsed from the windows of his studio. The houses in the distance stand out against the soft sky, and the left side is occupied by the wall of the building, with no view of the complete landscape, almost like the hedge in Leopardi's L'Infinito, another solitary intellectual and very important Italian romantic figure, one of Morandi's favorite poets.
