Carlo Carrà (February 11, 1881 – April 13, 1966)

                                                                                              

Funeral of the Anarchist Galli

1911

Carrà was one of the leading futurists, who, as many did, experimented a bit with movement in his paintings, but excelled in his depictions of lights, which to an extent mimic the light-play of the Impressionists, especially Monet; but Carrà, unlike the Impressionists, was attempting to describe the movement of light. As you can tell from the paintings here, Carrà played with other aspects of Futurism, as well as Tonalism and Primitivism. Beautiful works, wouldn't you say?
