Scorcio marittimo, an oil painting from Italy dated to 1920–1930 by Cesare Bentivoglio, sold with frame.
Description from the seller
Centivoglio Cesare - oil on board "Maritime View"
Canvas size 51 x 35 cm with a gorgeous frame free of termites, provided as a gift 64 x 49 x 4.5 cm
Signed at the lower left. Made between the 1920s and 1930s.
Cesare Bentivoglio (Genoa, 1868 – Genoa, 1952) was an Italian painter.
Biography
Self-taught painter, at a very young age he studied with Antonio Varni and Giuseppe Sacheri.
His preferred subjects were seascapes, landscapes, harbor views, hunting scenes, and the Dolomites.
For unknown reasons he always refused to participate in the Promotrici Genovesi and, in general, to exhibit at any art show.
His works were appreciated by Genoese bourgeoisie and beyond.
In fact his paintings, purchased by foreign art dealers, reached France and England.
From an initial painting still linked to the Ligurian vedutisti, technically close to the experience of the “Grey School,” he came to use color in a much livelier way, in the wake of post-impressionism.
He passed away in Genoa in 1952.
Black frame free of termites and well preserved. Hanger in place and ready to be hung.
From a well-off Piedmontese family.
