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.

PASCUTTI ANTONIO
Trieste 1832 - Venezia 1892
Iniziò l'attività come decoratore, vivendo e operando in Francia negli anni '60. Quindi, grazie all'appoggio finanziario dei suoi concittadini P. Revoltella e C. Rittmeyer, poté frequentare l'Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia, dove fu premiato nel 1870. Fu essenzialmente pittore di genere e predilesse la raffigurazione di scene d’interni, spesso di ambientazione settecentesca (Primo passo della convalescente, 1876, e La prima lezione, 1886, Trieste, Museo Revoltella) o di vita veneziana (Scorcio di Venezia, Milano-mercato). Alcune sue opere apparvero alle esposizioni triestine (1876, Doppia sorpresa; 1880, Nozze dalmate).
