Sick Child

By the same path, Rosso sought an objective consistency: “one must try to create a work which, through the life and humanity it breathes, communicates to the viewer all that the grandiose spectacle of powerful and healthy nature would evoke in him”. In this way lyrical subjectivism and truth to nature found a subtle balance in the work, dynamic by its very precariousness.
