2021 Limited Edition
by Elena Salmistraro
For Banfi, the “Pettegola” is the funny and ironic Italian name for a bird native to the Tuscan coast, the redshank, which I have imagined as cunning and full of song. This is why I chose to depict a young, colourful yet pensive woman completely absorbed by the cheerful and festive song of the redshank. The bright colours and clean lines, typical elements of my art, exalt the joyful and convivial atmosphere that characterises a toast, rendered even more carefree by the song of the lively bird. The song of the redshank thus becomes the perfect backdrop to an enjoyable evening in company while savouring a glass of the wine that shares its name.
