Created in 1909, Mrs. Maffi. A stage teacher represents a crucial moment in Boccioni's artistic research of the transition from Divisionism to Futurism. The portrait of Adalgisa Maffi strikes for its powerful plastic and luministic rendering, the result of a very personal divisionist technique. The imposing figure emerges from a barely hinted interior, constructed through light and color.
