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.

MARTELLI UGO
Ferrara 1881 - Sirmione (Brescia) 1921
Dalla scuola di D. Dossi a Ferrara passò a Milano all'Accademia di Brera, accostandosi presto alle soluzioni simboliste di G. Previati (Alberi solitari, Milano, Galleria d'Arte Moderna). Fu apprezzato acquafortista, ma si dedicò anche all’affresco, al graffito e alla pittura su vetro. La sua carriera si svolse a Milano, dove espose con una certa assiduità alle mostre della Famiglia Artistica (1909, Chiaro di luna, Piante al vento; 1910-1911, L'olivo, L'autunno, Impressioni) e alla Nazionale del 1912 (Naviglio, L'abbazia di Pomposa, Milano, Galleria d’Arte Moderna).
