### FRANCO COSTALONGA (1933–2019) **Illusioni, 2003** **Original artwork – Mixed media on canvas – 30 × 30 cm** An original work by Franco Costalonga, a significant figure in Italian Optical, Kinetic and Programmed Art of the second half of the twentieth century. Created in 2003, this composition features a vibrant green background animated by concentric circles, squares and multicoloured triangles. The geometric elements are arranged in rhythmic patterns, creating a striking sense of optical movement, depth and chromatic vibration. The composition reflects Costalonga's exploration of visual perception and the relationship between colour, geometry and space. **AUTHENTICITY AND DOCUMENTATION** The reverse of the canvas bears the artist's signature and the date “03”, together with the inscription “FRANCO COSTALONGA – OPERA AUTENTICA”. According to the auction house's catalogue description, the artwork is accompanied by a photographic certificate of authenticity issued by the artist.
