Italian term

visionarieta'

Italian to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
From the title of an article about Chagall's work: "Bibbia dei poveri e visionarieta' della fede bambina"

Visionarity sounds strange (don't think it is a word). Should it simply be vision, but that doesn't seem to encompass the whole meaning. Any help much appreciated.

visionary imagination

io tradurrei così... ci vuole senz'altro un sostantivo dopo visionary come dici tu...

Thanks Ivana!
agree luskie : assolutamente da tenere visionary... esiste la visionary art... e poi chagall! in alternativa si potrebbe attaccare direttamente a fede, per es visionary faith, ma questa mi sembra molto meglio

Grazie! Anche io penso vada assolutamente tenuto VISIONARY (è un concetto ben preciso) e mi piace associarlo a IMAGINATION dal momento che poi si parla di "fede bambina"

idealism

Is probably what I would use here, given the "fede bambina" ending.
A "visionario" is a visionary, but also someone with ideals, almost utopistic.
Hence "idealism"
