“Freddo a Milano”
Original Gouache Painting
 
Freddo a Milano evokes the understated elegance of winter days in the Italian capital of style. This gouache on paper portrays a man strolling through Milan’s cold streets, wrapped in effortless sophistication and timeless layering.
 
A beige cold-wool cashmere coat forms the foundation of the look, complemented by a sober blue wool scarf that moves softly with the air. Beneath, a casual blue-and-white striped shirt emerges, paired with a thick wool tie in brown, beige, and burgundy checks — rich, warm, and deeply sartorial.
 
The ensemble is elevated by a burgundy silk pocket square with white polka dots, adding a refined flourish that speaks of attention to detail and personal flair. The palette is calm yet expressive, capturing the poetry of winter dressing and Milanese restraint.
 
Framed with a neutral passepartout, Freddo a Milano brings warmth, elegance, and European sophistication to any space — a tribute to slow walks, cold air, and impeccable style.
