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.

PASSIGLI CARLO
Firenze 1881 - 1953
Allievo di G. Calosci alI’Accademia di Firenze, studiò poi a Venezia con G. Ciardi ed E. Tito. Nel 1900 rientrò a Firenze e cominciò a dedicarsi al paesaggio e alla pittura di genere, coniugando i meditati riferimenti alla tradizione postmacchiaiola con gli interessi per il Divisionismo di P. Nomellini. Esordì a Torino nel 1902, ottenendo un discreto successo, confermato nel 1905 quando espose alla Biennale di Venezia Epilogo della vita.
