Setting Sun II
- Artist:
- Type: Painting
- Medium: Oil on canvas
- Production Date: 1962
- Description: Though he lived in Dundee, Morrocco's Italian heritage meant that Italy was the destination for many holidays and study trips. He drew prolifically on these outings, and his paintings evoke scenes of the heat and vitality of a southern Mediterranean summer. Morrocco was interested in exploring colour in relation to shape and form. He was influenced early in his career by Picasso and Braque, whom he had encountered on his travels. This looser landscape perhaps retains some of this influence.
