Time to put myself to bed.

I think the question here is whether "concentrazione" refers to a style that is terse, or - as riglioli suggests - intense. Almost impossible to decide without seeing the painting.
yes, it would be very helpful as this sentence is open to various interpretations. I like "intensity", but I'm almost sure this is not what is meant in this context
