THE ARTWORK
In Il cavallo bianco, Alberico Morena gathers horse and figures within a circular image, like a small scene seen through an opening. Architectural lines frame the presences and distinguish their positions.
The woodcut alternates dark surfaces and light details, giving bodies, clothing and background rhythm. The broad margin highlights this compact narrative, where each mark helps construct space and dialogue between characters.
