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.

 

Pina Enrico*

PINA ENRICO
Casalnoceto (Alessandria) 1872 - Torino 1912
Frequentò dal 1884 al 1896 la Civica Scuola di Pittura di Pavia sotto la guida di P. Michis. Nel 1891 si aggiudicò il premio Lauzi con Bimba che declama una poesia e nel 1897 il premio Frank con II professore Reale fa scudo della sua persona a difesa degli studenti (Pavia, Museo Civico), dove il taglio fotografico che inquadra l’evento contemporaneo non esclude il ricorso a una gestualità accademica. Trasferitosi a Torino, coltivò la pittura di storia e quella di genere.
