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.

CAPUTO ULISSE
Salerno 1872 - Parigi 1948
L’artista studiò all’Accademia di Napoli con D. Morelli e in seguito sotto la guida di G. Esposito. Esordì nel 1897 a Milano (Dopo la suonata) e nel 1900 si stabilì a Parigi. Descrisse la società elegante di fine secolo (La sinfonia, Parigi, Musée National d’Art Moderne), ora raffigurando interni con figure femminili, ora riprendendo scene cittadine. Al 1914 risale un viaggio in Marocco all’origine di alcuni dipinti orientalisti. Espose tra l’altro a Milano nel 1906 e nel 1910 (L’avant-scéne), a Roma nel 1909 e nel 1911 (Il thè e Il balletto) e a Venezia dal 1907 al 1914.
