Genuss des Lebens - La gioia della vita
The joy of life
Who or what gives us pleasure can be, in any phase or situation in life, someone or something different. Experiencing a pleasant sensation is surely positive and for this reason it is portrayed here in light colours that convey joy. The tension between the cold (blue and grey) and the warm (pink, orange and yellow) tells us that we don't all feel joy in the presence of the same person or thing. Pleasure is individual.
Perhaps you see a pair of lovers, perhaps many people embracing, perhaps mothers hovering over their children, or perhaps children jumping, carefree, in water? Or do you see the black cherry and smurf-blue gelato from the Giolitti ice-cream parlour in Via degli Uffici del Vicario 40? Something for the happy people who have learned how to enjoy life.
