Introduction

SCRIBO – Piuma Impressione

Rapid brush strokes capturing the instant in which thewarm sunlight reflects on the water; agile pen movements anchoring on the paper; thoughts lingering on ideas and sensations volatile as well as meaningful these are Levante and Impressione.

LevanteandImpressione,the new colours of ourPIUMAcollection,remind us of the beautiful orange sunlight reflecting on therippledwater of Le Havre harbour, captured at dawn by Claude Moneton amorningin1872. This masterpiece, entitledImpression, Soleil Levantbecame the manifesto of Impressionism,an artmovement able to ensure the changing qualities of a visual scene through the use of quick brush strokeson the canvas, in this way transforming and elevating the momentary into immortal artwork.

We take inspiration from this suggestive painting and its vibrant colours to represent the agileandquick handwriting style embodied by our collection. A writing style able to ensure fleetingperhaps unfinished thoughts on the paper through the smooth, rapid succession of ink lines that,exactly like the paint skilfully applied by the Impressionists, are able toseizethe creativity and spontaneity of the moment.
