Tela stampata per ricamo con perline (senza perline) «Caffè all'aperto»

“Street cafeteria” — a sunny lane in an old European town, where tables wait under striped awnings and every balcony spills over with flowers.

What the picture shows

The narrow street runs away from the viewer towards a hill of tiled roofs and half-timbered façades. On the right stands a tall town house with blue shutters and boxes of pink and red flowers on every balcony; below it a red-and-white striped awning and a shop front with paintings displayed on easels. On the left, in the shade of a green canopy, café tables are set out, with a passer-by and a chalkboard menu beside them. A flower cart and a lamp post wrapped in greenery stand in the middle of the roadway. The sky is light, with tall cumulus clouds. Coverage is partial: beads fill the façades, flowers, awnings, lanterns and the pattern of the cobblestones, while the sky, the clouds and the distant greenery stay as printed paint on the canvas.
