Landscape

A well-known painter from Trieste, he is a valid representative of the Italian mid-nineteenth century. He devoted himself especially to landscape painting, supported by a good design and a sincere approach to nature. Close to Fragiacomo in some of his effects, his work is distinguished by a greater compositional linearity. In the landscape that we admire here, the trees and the marshy expanse are all one, conspicuous against the sky embellished with fast-moving clouds. If the gift of chromatic luminosity appears fundamentally lost here, what remains is a good compositional ability and a late romanticism that fades into twentieth century decadentism.
