Terminus 

Dan Graziano painted Terminus, which captures the architecture and atmosphere of a bustling city street. Graziano, working in a time of rapid urbanization, seems to meditate on the points of transit and passage that define modern life. The classical design of the building contrasts with the contemporary setting of cars and streetlights, creating a juxtaposition that invites contemplation. What does it mean to carry historical elements into the present? The painting's title, "Terminus," suggests not just an end but also a point of connection, a station where routes converge. The architecture looms, its colonnades acting as a bridge between historical grandeur and the everyday movement of people and vehicles. It evokes the transient nature of urban existence. The blend of classical architecture with modern transport suggests a sense of continuity, showing how history and progress intersect in our daily lives, while also stirring a sense of longing for a perhaps simpler past.
