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.

CANELLA CARLO
Verona 1800 - Milano 1879
Allievo del fratello Giuseppe, dopo un periodo di studi all’Accademia veronese esordì all'Esposizione milanese del 1829 con un Ritratto. Dal 1835 partecipò alle mostre veronesi (1836, Ingresso di S. Bernardino, Verona, Galleria d’Arte Moderna) e a quelle di Milano (1837, Interno dello studio di un pittore, dal vero, Milano, Galleria d’Arte Moderna) con vedute di Verona, Venezia, Milano, interni di chiese (due Interni del Duomo di Milano, Trieste, Museo Revoltella) e domestici, animati spesso da figure e scene di genere; in essi appare significativa la sintonia con i modi di G. Migliara. Nominato accademico, partecipò fino al 1876 alle esposizioni.
