Il Giornale: Morning Shadows in Firenze
A quiet morning in Florence comes to life in Il Giornale, part of Kyle Lucks’ Tuscany, Italy series. This piece captures a sharply dressed man reading the newspaper against a whitewashed wall, bathed in the dramatic shadows of a narrow city alley. A bright street sign and bold textures reflect the energy of the city’s early hours, while layered brushwork evokes the movement and mood of Florence waking up. With its balance of stillness and style, this artwork honors the beauty found in everyday moments across one of Italy’s most iconic urban landscapes.
Inside the Art: The Story Behind Il Giornale
Part of Kyle Lucks’ Tuscany, Italy series, Il Giornale captures the essence of a quiet morning in Florence, blending fashion, architecture, and atmosphere into a single moment. The title, which means “the newspaper” in Italian, sets the scene: a well-dressed businessman pauses in the early light to read the day’s headlines, surrounded by the historic charm of narrow alleyways and textured city walls.
A crisp white backdrop and a vibrant street sign draw the eye, while deep shadows and warm light carve out dimension and mood. The man’s dark silhouette offers contrast against the subtle energy of the background, where abstract brushwork and layered texture reflect the rhythm of the waking city.
With expressive color, confident composition, and a cinematic sense of pause, this piece tells a story. A story about the daily rituals that define a place, the beauty of stillness amid movement, and the style that lives in the streets of Florence. Both timeless and contemporary, Il Giornale is a striking visual tribute to one of Italy’s most iconic cities.

Print Technique & Materials
Prints are reproductions of original paintings using a high-quality inkjet printing technique known as "giclee."
Unframed and framed artwork is printed on archival cotton rag paper, which is acid free and will resist fading and discoloration for generations. Unframed prints on paper are unsigned and feature a 1.5"-2" white border around the image. Most unframed prints are non-standard sizes and will require a custom mat to properly display the artwork, though the outer dimensions of the mat will fit standard frame sizes.
All framing is custom made to the exact specifications of each image, with an acid-free white mat and acrylic glazing (glass is prone to breaking when shipped). Most prints are non-traditional sizes and will not fit properly in mats or frames purchased off the shelf, therefore custom framing is recommended.
Canvas prints are referred to as "gallery-wrapped" because the color or image wraps around the sides of the canvas and it is stapled on the back. The canvas is wrapped around 1.5" deep wood stretcher bars and arrives ready to hang.
Framed canvas prints feature a "float frame," which has a 0.25" gap between the edge of the canvas and the frame moulding. The frame is 2" deep.
Custom Mat for Unframed Paper
Most unframed prints are non-standard sizes and will require a custom mat to properly display the artwork, though the outer dimensions of the mat will fit standard frame sizes.
You can purchase a custom mat from your local frame shop or online. If online, we suggest Matboard & More. Choose Arctic White in Decorative Quality, or if you prefer to upgrade, select White Art in Conservation Quality.
