This painting is inspired by the theories of Cesare Lombroso.
He supported the idea that a criminal can be recognised from some peculiar aspect in his face.
Starting from this point, i decided to paint some parts or the whole face of people found in old crime news magazine, guilty and innocent ones.
The aim is to let the viewers to project their own interpretation and feelings about portrayed subject, using their judging criteria, the same we use in everyday life when we approach a human face.
