"Mortirolo" is a painting by Emilio Longoni, an Italian artist associated with the Divisionist movement, which was part of the broader trend of Pointillism in Europe. Created in 1910, the painting depicts the scenic view of the Passo del Mortirolo, a mountain pass in the Italian Alps, renowned for its natural beauty and as a challenging route in professional cycling, particularly the Giro d'Italia.

In "Mortirolo," Longoni employs Divisionist techniques, characterized by the separation of colors into individual dots or patches which interact optically to form the image when viewed from a distance. This method of painting reflects the influence of scientific theories about color and vision that were popular among avant-garde artists at the turn of the 20th century. Longoni's use of vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes captures the luminous quality of the alpine landscape and conveys the rugged, untamed spirit of the mountains.

The painting is significant not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its representation of the Italian landscape, which was a source of national pride during a period of burgeoning nationalism pre-World War I. "Mortirolo" is emblematic of Longoni's work during a period when he focused on depicting the Alps, revealing his fascination with nature's power and the interplay of light and color.

As an important work by Emilio Longoni, "Mortirolo" contributes to the understanding of the Divisionist movement's role in the evolution of modern art in Italy. It stands as a testament to Longoni's skill in capturing the essence of the natural world and his commitment to exploring the optical effects of color, which would influence future generations of artists. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is considered a valuable piece of Italy's cultural heritage.
