"Primo Conti 1925- The Toilet In The Harem. (cm.71x51) Signed."
Primo Conti (Florence 1900-1988), an Italian painter, composer and writer, was one of the main exponents of the Futurist movement. The painting, made in 1925, depicts three women, two of whom are busy getting themselves ready, while the third, a maid, is helping them. The painter uses bright colors and bold brush strokes, the sense of movement is intensely perceived, and the background characterized by the color red gives brightness to the rest of the work.
