"Fiumetto 3" by Gastone Lanfredini is a vibrant example of naïve painting, characterized by bright colors and a richly detailed composition. The scene depicts a whimsical procession: two men in improbable striped outfits carrying work tools, followed by a pair of children and two women in white dresses with hats. In the background, a nearly psychedelic garden with flowers, sunflowers, and other plants creates a dreamy and decorative atmosphere. The piece, with its absurd contrasts and references to 1970s Pop culture, is an unusual and decorative work, perfect for those who appreciate naïve art and imaginative compositions.

#### Artist Biography
Gastone Lanfredini (Florence, 1923 - Sansepolcro, 2005) was a Tuscan artist known for his naïve painting style, characterized by vivid colors and stylized figures that evoke a simple and enchanted world. A mathematician turned artist, Lanfredini moved from figurative art to abstraction in the early 1960s, simplifying forms and emphasizing color. His Concrete Painting creates a new reality where harmony, proportions, and color compositions remain faithful to natural forms, despite the stylistic changes. 

Passionate about nature and the countryside, Lanfredini settled in Sansepolcro, where he spent much of his life and artistic career. In this city, he was celebrated with a major exhibition titled **"Gastone Lanfredini. From the Sensible to the Essence - 100 Years Since His Birth 1923 - 2023," which honored an artist who captured the essence of nature and Tuscan rural life through his unique and poetic style.
