CESARE BREVEGLIERI, Milanese painter, attended the Brera Academy.

He loved Picasso, Matisse, but was particularly drawn to Utrillo and Rousseau, because they were closer to his poetic world. They taught him to understand the charm of the everyday, of what happens before the eyes each day, and to penetrate it without being led astray by appearances.

He worked actively and participated in Milan's cultural life and kept friendships with several painters, among them Carlo Carrà, to whom he made a portrait, and Filippo De Pisis, whom he admired for the spontaneity and joy of his work.

He spent his last years in Brianza, where he lived peacefully and painted the green countryside, the peasants, the cornfields, the small churches, the Paderno Bridge, with the same meticulous love with which in Milan he had managed to capture the atmosphere and the characters of the Gerolamo and San Siro theaters or on the Riviera, the people strolling along the palm-lined seafront, earning the nickname of the Italian Utrillo.

The painter’s remains are interred at the Monumental Cemetery in the Garbin Mausoleum dedicated to illustrious Milanese artists.
