Description: | This rural scene is executed in Giuseppe Palizzi's characteristic sketchy style and shows his interest in the direct observation of the effects of light and colour. Palizzi studied at the Reale Istituto di Belle Arti, in Naples, under Anton Sminck Pitloo and Gabriele Smargiassi. During the 1840s and 1850s, Palizzi lived in France, where he became close to the Barbizon group of painters and achieved success and recognition at the Paris Salons. His works were acquired by French collectors such as Edgar Degas's friend Paul Valpinçon. | Subjects: | animal (donkey goose); figure; everyday life | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Palizzi, Giuseppe (Italian painter, 1812-1888) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9014... | Go to resource |
