Runner | Bronte B

Bronte, a town known worldwide for the particular variety of Pistachio that grows luxuriantly on the slopes of Etna. Near the town is the Museum of the "Sicilian Gullotti cart", born from the passion of a lineage of carters. From a wheeled artifact to a work of art, the cart is an expression of the folklore of a part of Sicily where the quality and refinement of the paintings are exalted in the scenes of the side walls, rich in executive details and refined and well-finished carvings. The entire “Catanese” float is decorated on a predominantly red background with bright, strong and contrasting shades: yellow, red, green and blue, characteristic of Sicilian taste, obtained with colored earths mixed with linseed oil. This wisdom and craftsmanship are emphasized in the Bronte line where the designer takes up the floral and geometric motifs from the “banks”.
