Dictionary of Artists

 

To meet the requirement of scholars, art dealers, collectors or simple amateurs of having a quick and effective tool at their disposal to satisfy the various exigencies connected with the world of art, first of all the in-depth analysis of the work of painters, sculptors, engravers, photographers, etc., the "Dictionary of artists" puts itself up as an annotated list of names, sometimes accompanied, if marked by an asterisk, by a biography and by some signature examples.

Each artist is matched with a series of index cards regarding the works registered in the Data Bank of the Matteucci Institute, which can be issued on request.

The biographies are taken from the Dizionario degli artisti edited by Cristina Bonagura, integral part of the work Pittori & pittura dell'Ottocento italiano (1996-1997), coordinated by Giuliano Matteucci with the cooperation of Paul Nicholls and realized by the Redazioni Grandi Opere of the "Istituto Geografico De Agostini", to whom the Matteucci Institute expresses its sincere thanks for authorizing the circulation of the texts on line.

 

Busciolano Vincenzo*

BUSCIOLANO VINCENZO
Napoli 1851 - dopo il 1916
Nel 1862 si iscrisse all’Accademia di Belle Arti di Napoli distinguendosi nella scuola del nudo. Indirizzato da D. Morelli ai temi orientalisti, eseguì per il concorso accademico del 1874 un Musulmano dormiente. Nel 1876 partecipò alla Promotrice napoletana con Una povera Saffo (Benevento, Museo del Sannio), dove utilizzò valori di calda luminosità. Accanto ai soggetti “archeologici” (L'augure, esposto a Napoli nel 1877) svolse temi di genere (Nu poco de politeca doppo magnato, Napoli, Amministrazione Provinciale), dove talvolta affiorano intenti di denuncia sociale.
