The grass is lighter on the left, and there's a yellow haze around the trees. The sun is setting over there.

This image is a rather unique but truthful take on a man sitting on a boat with two dogs. You can tell by the subtlety of the artist's brush strokes that he wanted this to be a painting of a man, two dogs, and a boat. I like how he managed to convey that the person on the boat was a man, by painting one. The addition of the two dogs really highlights the fact that there are two dogs.
It's apparently from a 1978 feature on Where The River Shannon Flows. Nicholas Pileggi's mother decided to paint a version of it, and that's what you see in the film.

Without the beard. No, it's him! Oh right!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Tuscany and Verona were major exponents of the profile style. It's more of a Northern Italian rather than a Sicilian tradition.

Mrs. Pileggi may have thought of Shakespeare

>Condottieri (Italian: [kondotˈtjɛːri]; singular condottiero and condottiere) were the leaders of the professional military free companies (or mercenaries) contracted by the Italian city-states and the Papacy[1] from the late Middle Ages and throughout the Renaissance. In Renaissance Italian, condottiero meant "contractor", and was synonymous with the modern English title Mercenary Captain. In contemporary Italian, "condottiero" acquired the broader meaning of "military leader", not restricted to mercenaries. In Italian historiography, Renaissance mercenary captains are usually called capitani di ventura (literally "venture captains").
>These Italian words were standard usage in English writing of the Napoleonic times that remained current in written histories until the late 20th century; because formally employed, standing, professional armies were uncommon outside Italy until late in the Napoleonic Wars (1800–1815). Thus, the word Condottiere in the English language has come to denote, in the modern sense, any hired soldier.

Personally I love it. You got one dog facing one way the other dog facing the other way, and then this guy's lIke "whaddya want from me?"

The main thing I like about it is that it's not just one, but two dogs, and there's a man behind them.
