The trompe l’oeil of Palazzo Salis, Tirano: A Photographic Exhibition by John Paull.
The Palazzo Salis is an architectural treasure of Tirano. The visitor will discover a treasure trove of illusion. Every room has its share of artistic fakery. There are high vaulted ceilings that aren’t highly vaulted at all, deceptive doors, fake windows, illusory staircases, painted-on drapery, faux marble features, and pillars and balconies masquerading as the real thing. The Palazzo Salis is a grand example of the art of illusion and troupe l’oeil.
Trompe l’oeil is the art of deceiving the eye - and the Palazzo Salis of Tirano is a masterpiece of such deception with more ersatz architectural features than real. Little in the Palazzo Salis has escaped as a fit subject for painterly deception. Tin the Palazzo Salis, the mason has withdrawn to let prevail the skills and the imagination of generations of artists.
Tirano is a village of northern Italy, close to the Swiss border. It is the starting point of the Bernina Express, the train that takes advantage of the engineering marvels of viaducts and tunnels to climb up and over the Alps into Switzerland. The route rises to 2250 metres above sea level, through the UNESCO World Heritage site, past glaciers and snow-fed lakes, to St Moritz and Chur.
Tirano and the Valtellina have been sources of immigrants for Australia. Ernesto Genoni (1885-1975), Australia’s pioneer of biodynamic agriculture (http://orgprints.org/27514/18/27514.pdf), was born in Tirano, studied art at the Brera Academy in Milan, served as a stretcher bearer in WWI in the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) on the Somme, and studied Anthroposophy with Rudolf Steiner in Switzerland, before finally settling in Australia.
