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.

SANTORO ROSALBINO
Fnscaldo (Cosenza) 1857 - dopo il 1934
Membro di una famiglia di artisti calabresi, intorno al 1877 è documentato a Napoli, dove studiò presso l'Accademia di Belle Arti come allievo di R. Postiglione; dopo aver vinto diversi premi esordì alla Promotrice partenopea del 1880 con quattro studi di Capri. Espose ancora a Mlano nel 1880 e nel 1881 (Bagni di Guardia piemontese-paese, Pagliai, Due amiche, Marina di Mergellina) e a Napoli nel 1883. Sia nei paesaggi sia nei ritratti (Ritratto di Bernardino Telesio, Catanzaro, coll. della provincia) rimase fedele all’indirizzo verista.
