Le figlie di Loth III (Lot's Daughters III)

Le figlie di Loth III (Lot's Daughters III)

In his post-Futurist turn, Carrà adopts a metaphysical quiet—monumental figures simplified into clear volumes, muted earth colors, and a timeless setting. The biblical subject is treated with reserve: gestures slow, space architectural, emotion interior. It’s Novecento classicism in embryo, trading velocity for weight and ritual poise.

Visiting Tips

Stand slightly off-center: the shallow stage and figure grouping ‘lock’ together and the calm intensifies.

Why This Artwork Is Important

  • Marker of Carrà’s shift from Futurism to a sober, classical modernity.
  • Novecento sensibility: simplified volumes, archaic calm, and moral gravity.

What to Look For

  • Blocky, sculptural bodies outlined with clean contours.
  • Muted palette—ochres, stone greys—creating temporal distance.
  • Still, stage-like space that reads like a relief come alive.

Fun Fact

By 1920 Carrà was writing as much as painting—his theory of ‘return to order’ shaped Italian classicizing trends.
