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.

 

Rosa Luigi*

ROSA LUIGI
Venezia 1850 - Roma 1919
Si formò all'Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia. Paesaggista legato di preferenza ai soggetti veneziani, ritrasse anche motivi dal vero in altre regioni (Monte Grappa, Roma, Galleria Comunale d’Arte Moderna). Espose a Venezia (1878, A Sturla-riviera di Genova, In giardino a Venezia, Altare maggiore a S. Marco; 1881, Sul Livenza, Maremma e Sul Gorgazzo) e frequentò assiduamente anche le esposizioni di Torino (1878, Strada a Polcenigo), Milano (1879, Sui tetti a Venezia) e Roma (1883, In laguna dopo la pioggia). Agli inizi del secolo comparvero nelle sue opere richiami simbolisti (Riandando il passato, Nel silenzio verde, esposti a San Pietroburgo nel 1902).
