Sent away from the restaurant
oil on canvas
cm 100 × 120

An imperious hand points the way of solitude and desperation. The gesture of the restaurant owner sends the group of disabled friends away. Thier eyes are open wide, thier bodies motionless. They watch the man with no anger in thier eyes: they are resigned and mortified, crooked and immobile like twistesd olive trees in their wheelchairs, trasformed by destiny into statues of salt. Only Daniele will challenge the hypocrisy and ignorance, upright and fearless like an ancient cavalier. He alone will defend the weak and downtrodden. He knows that life gives away nothing, and even takes away from those who have little.
