Boiled Polychrome Painting

This one-of-a-kind, provocative oil on canvas painting offers food for thought on the contrast between successful and failed painters, a dichotomy that is common to the world of art. Boiled is a term that in Italian also means exhausted, and artist Gabriele Picco conveys this through a sad deformed man with his feet immersed in a saucepan put to boil on a burner.
