I have recently become absolutely obsessed with this painting. it’s called “the hunt in the forest” by paolo di dono. something about it brings me such comfort but also a sort of quietly impending sense of doom. something about those trees disappearing off into the darkness. it’s extraordinary!

SENSI DELL'ARTE - di Gianpiero Menniti
COME UNA LANTERNA MAGICA
Un pittore.
Trasognato da immagini apparse sotto ogni tocco di pennello.
Infine, rapito dai suoni immaginati di un racconto: voci, grida, scalpiccio di zoccoli, latrati, la foresta persa nelle tenebre improvvisamente animata.
Il mistero, nel fondo, attrae lo sguardo.
Infonde timore.
L'essere umano esita.
Ma l'essere gruppo spinge fino al coraggio.
Vivere è l'impresa di solitudini oltraggiate dall'incontro.
"Caccia notturna" è tra le ultime o forse è l'ultima opera conosciuta di Paolo di Dono (1397 - 1475) detto "Paolo Uccello" per la rara perizia nel dipingere volatili.
Fu uno sperimentatore: intraprese una pittura prospettica ma piegandola al modello coinvolgente del realismo magico intensamente connesso al "gotico internazionale", movimento artistico e architettonico dell'Europa imborghesita e cortigiana del tempo, anelante di rappresentazioni.
L'effetto è retorico.
Eppure contiene tutti i segni dell'incipit di un racconto di cavalieri e dame, di un'esistenza gioiosa ed emotiva, illusione sgargiante sullo sfondo di un buio in attesa.
La scena concitata potrebbe narrare una battuta di caccia, capitanata da Lorenzo de Medici, in una pineta nei pressi di Pisa.
Risale a un periodo compreso tra il 1465 e il 1470.
Forse per la testata di un letto o per un cassone oppure come ornamento domestico.
Oggi è conservata nell’Ashmolean Museum di Oxford.
Come una lanterna magica perennemente accesa.
