Description

Here’s a coloring book to make your mouth water! A zucchini flower, mushrooms and a bunch of cherries, Piero Gilardi’s drawings depict nature as simple and familiar, a feast for the eyes of any lover of hedgerows and woods. The artist is a master of illusion: his drawings provide the perfect foil for this beloved nature, to the point where you can almost smell the citrus fruit and the humus, and birds might well come pecking at the grapes, just like the Ancient Greek painter Zeuxis. Piero has been ecologist from the very beginning, bringing together nature and culture, which he celebrates as two twin sisters. Forward march all your fruits and vegetables: It’s time to take the museum.
