Ancient Neoclassical Secrétaire CH Jeanselme Paris '900 Marble Top - Paris, Early XX Century

Female Face

Oil on wood. Signed lower right. Bruto Mazzolani dedicated himself mainly to landscape painting and nudes. In his production he progressively moved from descriptive realism of academic origin to a painting with marked divisionist and Macchiaioli accents, which ultimately took on an increasingly strongly material connotation. In this portrait of a woman, depicted only in the face, the impressionist influence prevails in the play of light and light and dark which create continuity between the features of the face and the background. The table has some small marks. It is presented in a contemporary frame.

Forest Glimpse

Oil on the table. Signed on the back, with a student's written declaration of authenticity. Specializing in landscape painting, the painter Romeo Borgognoni mainly depicted glimpses of the Pavia countryside, in a style which, although with realist rigor, draws on impressionism for its bright and vibrant brushstrokes. The work is presented in a frame.

Landscape with Shepeherds and Ruins

Oil on wood. Signed lower right. Antonio Oberto, a post-impressionist painter from Pavia, dedicated himself to landscapes but also to the decorations of public buildings in his city. He mainly proposed views of Pavia and the Pavia countryside along the Ticino, depicted, through rapid brushstrokes, in a late nineteenth-century style. A large landscape is proposed here along the river, precisely the Ticino in its flat stretch, precisely the one that borders the city of Pavia; in the foreground, on the right the remains of neoclassical structures, on the left two shepherds with their flock. The work is presented in a period frame.

The Old Brige in Pavia

Oil on canvas cardboard. Signed lower right. Mario Acerbi, son of the Pavia painter Ezechiele, dedicated himself to a realistic painting of impressionist origin, in which color plays the main role associated with a skilful ability to modulate light. His landscape production, like his father's, looks above all to the city and countryside of Pavia, his places of origin and life. The painting is presented in a frame.

Female Portrait

Oil on wood. Signed lower right. Riccardo Viriglio, a landscape painter from Pavia, portrayed urban views mainly of his city and landscape views especially of Lombardy. Here, however, a portrait of a lady is presented, sitting in an interior, lively in its bright colours. In frame.
