The artwork titled “DeChirico Metafisico,” created by the esteemed artist Giorgio de Chirico, belongs to the Metaphysical art and Surrealism movements. This piece, measuring 70 by 63.5 cm, falls under the genre of interior art.
In the artwork, a complex and intriguing arrangement of various geometric shapes and architectural elements is presented within an ambiguous, confined interior space. Dominating the scene is an open box-like structure containing a surreal depiction of an industrial building with smoke emanating from its chimney, juxtaposed against a serene, blue sky. Adjacent to this box, an assembly of colorful, abstract shapes extends in multiple directions, evoking a sense of organized chaos. To the left, a painting within the painting portrays another architectural scene, creating layers of depth and mystery. The floor is littered with more geometric forms, adding to the surreal and enigmatically distorted perspective typical of de Chirico’s metaphysical approach.
