The Crossing or The Departure of the Sailor, 1901
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Alessandro Milesi that beautifully captures the emotions and complexities of farewell. Set against the backdrop of a Venetian harbor, the scene depicts a poignant moment as a sailor bids goodbye to his loved ones. The composition is filled with symbolism and tender gestures. A young woman stands on the bank, her hand raised in farewell while holding onto her baby. A gondola waits nearby, ready to transport the departing sailor. In another boat, a young girl waves goodbye with an innocent smile on her face. Milesi's masterful brushwork brings life to every detail in this evocative artwork. The soft hues and delicate play of light create an atmosphere filled with both hope and sadness. As we gaze at this painting, we can almost hear the gentle lapping of water against boats and feel the weight of separation hanging in the air. "The Crossing or The Departure of the Sailor" reminds us of love's bittersweet nature – how it intertwines joyous moments with heart-wrenching goodbyes. It speaks to our shared human experience: saying farewell to those we hold dear as they embark on new journeys. This timeless piece from Milan's Fondazione Cariplo serves as a testament to Milesi's talent for capturing raw emotion through artistry. It invites viewers into its narrative, allowing them to reflect upon their own experiences of departure and longing.
