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.

 

Scuri Galizzi Selene*

SCURI GALIZZI SELENE
Bergamo 1845 - 1925
All’Accademia Carrara di Berga-mo fu allieva del padre Enrico, di cui riprese l’inclinazione ver¬so la pittura storico-letteraria (Morte di Antonietta Bonghi, esposto nel 1865 a Oporto, Portogallo; L'anima di Buonconte di Montefeltro, esposto a Parma nel 1870) e religiosa (Visione della B. Vergine a San Rocco, per la chiesa di Sant’Anna, Bergamo, esposto a Milano nel 1866). Una più per-sonale vena intimista si espresse in quadri di soggetto familiare presentati alle mostre di Milano (1872, Un bambino in culla, Il buon cuore della sorellina; 1873, Ricreazioni di famiglia).
