Early work of Pietro Leidi, Brescian painter, deaf and mute from birth. He was artistically educated in Lugano as a student of Luigi Rossi in the beginning, then in the Academy in Florence. Back to Brescia, he opened his own atelier and became part of the "Group of indepent Artists" of the city. He is known mostly as a landscape painter, painting landscapes characterised by bright skies, and solidly constructed closeups with rich colours; glimpses of his native land and the Alps are particularly frequent. His work can be seen in many important collections, both public and private, in Milan, Turin, Genoa, Venice and Brescia. Coeval frame.
