"ISULA ROSSA!" | Original Corsica Flag Pop Art Canvas by Lau Costantini
Couldn't load pickup availability
I am Corsican like I am an artist — by birth.
In 1755, Pascal Paoli was elected General of the Corsican nation. That year, he declared Corsica’s independence, chose the iconic black-and-white flag, and began drafting a constitution that would later inspire the American founding fathers as they wrote the US Constitution.
By 1758, he established a new port at Isula Rossa (L’Île-Rousse) to secure Corsica’s naval independence — a bold vision for the island’s future.
While the Corsican flag is black and white, the story of Corsica, an island in the heart of the Mediterranean, is painted in a thousand colors. This painting pays tribute to my roots — both geographic and artistic — blending history, identity, and contemporary art.

Available Unframed & ready to hang.
One-of-a-kind original artwork — oil on a 30x30cm canvas (20mm)
Contemporary, textured, with fiery orange hues and dynamic strokes evoking the energy and brilliance of Paoli’s vision and the vibrant port city it inspired
“ISULA ROSSA!” captures the fiery orange of Corsican sunsets, the spires and spirit of a city envisioned to shine like a beacon — a bold and brilliant tribute to both the place and the vision that birthed it.

Story & Music
Story & Music
"ISULA ROSSA!" is part of my new serie"Corsicana" inspired by my Pop Art roots and the saturated portraits of Warhol's designated icons, from Marilyn to Queen Elizabeth, which led to my own icon, symbol of my
Family roots: the Corsican Flag.
Our Flag is cut in black and white, which would suggest a stark vision of our island and its people. I see it differently. Our history, our idiosyncrasies, our fractures and my journey, and the journey of all the people, who had to leave and look for a better life around the world make that flag an endless succession of layers and colours. I have but captured just a few.
