Description
Le Cavallette di Capoliveri, oil on canvas
Creation year
early 1970s
Fritz always had his painting utensils with him on vacation trips, also on the island of Elba. We stayed in a vacation home below the village of Capoliveri, which Fritz painted several times. In the front of this painting are two grasshoppers, and the whole picture was painted from a grasshopper perspective. This is expressed by the many meadow flowers in the picture, which tower far above the village in the background.
