What is a common theme in de Chirico's best-known works?

  • Seascapes

  • Portraits of Royalty

  • Roman arcades

  • Farm Animals

Answer

The answer is the use of Roman arcades. Giorgio de Chirico's enigmatic paintings often feature deserted urban plazas lined with arcades inspired by the architecture of ancient Rome. These mysterious, dream-like cityscapes evoke a sense of absence, isolation, and the juxtaposition of the past and present.
