Naïve by nature and unflattered by the recent success of this expressive genre, the intensity of Cesare Marchesini's expression and natural tones hark back to the most authentic tradition of the French and Yugoslav masters. His work, however, possesses a completely personal signature, an original touch, a strong and deeply personal will. His paintings possess the complacent light of joy and the unreal transparency of the most genuine impressions.
