Gino Moro (1901-1977) - Veduta Ligure

A significant work by the painter Gino Moro (Milan 1901–1977), painted in oil on a wooden panel, in good condition.
The painting measures 18.5 cm by 46 cm.
The frame is original from the period.
Gino Moro studied at the Brera Academy, taking courses taught by Ambrogio Alciati, and split his teaching work between the Libera Scuola di Nudo and an art high school run by the Orsoline sisters on Via Lanzone in Milan.
From 1929, the year of her marriage to a fellow student, Maria Petrini began to frequent Luino.
It was right here that he met and became friends with the industrialists Hussy and Ratti and with Piero Chiara, who dedicated a few critical pages to him.
National-level recognitions did not take long to arrive: in 1930 he won the first prize in the Youth category (established by the eighteenth edition of the Venice Biennale) and won the International Prize of Paris.
In 1932 Filippo Turati commissioned him to paint the portrait of his father, Pietro, which is now kept in the Quadreria of the Maggiore Hospital in Milan.
He participated in the Rome Quadriennale, La Permanente in Milan, the Sacred Art Exhibition in Padua, and the National Exhibition in Bergamo.
It dates from 1950 as an honorary prize with a special mention, awarded to him by the jury of the Cesare da Sesto Historical-Artistic Society; while in 1963 there is the City of Milan prize, which was followed in 1964 by the prize at the 23rd National Art Biennial of Milan.
He staged solo exhibitions from 1944 in Varese, Legnano, Milan.
While remaining attentive to the changing trends of the Milanese art world, Moro aligned himself with the various currents with the aim of developing a personal language by calibrating the colors of his palette to those recurring settings such as Viale Dante, the Church of San Pietro in Campagna, and the 'Rotonda'.
Her regular visits to Liguria and her stays in Camogli are documented by numerous works.
