Artist’s Commentary

“Semi-formed buildings and alleyways, glimpsed through rolling mist and haze, guide us through a slow-burn night in Tuscany. With the romance of silence and mystery, a hint of gothica and a quietening heat, we are drawn into ancient vennels in the gloaming. A frisson of excitement and danger….the imagination runs wild…” (Colin Greenslade, Royal Scottish Academy Director, 2015).

Via Borgo (Tuscany) captures the main street, side alleys and interiors of this medieval little hamlet.
