Product description
Rapid brush strokes capturing the instant in which the warm sunlight reflects on the water; agile pen movements anchoring on the paper; thoughts lingering on ideas and sensations volatile as well as meaningful – these are Levante and Impressione.
Levante and Impressione, the new colours of our PIUMA collection, remind us of the beautiful orange sunlight reflecting on the rippled water of Le Havre harbour, captured at dawn by Claude Monet on a morning in 1872.
This masterpiece, entitled “Impression, Soleil Levant” became the manifesto of Impressionism, an art movement able to ensure the changing qualities of a visual scene through the use of quick brush strokes on the canvas, in this way ttansforming and elevating the momentary into immortal artwork.
Each fountain pen is supplied with a 2 pen pencase.
