Signed Giuseppe Cavalla: Torino 1859 – 1935
Initiated into art by his father Francesco, a decorator, he studied at the Accademia Albertina with A. Moja, E. Gamba and A. Gastaldi. The academic training had a decisive influence on the artist's production, never detached from conventional professionalism and essentially tied to a theoretical direction consistent with the teaching role he held at the Academy for forty years. He specialized in sacred mural decoration, often working in collaboration with his father and with R. Morgari. Cavalla was also a portraitist, scenographer, and author of graceful genre scenes (Idyll, Torino, Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna) that he exhibited at the annual shows of the Promotrice torinese (1884, Bonjour mon vieil ami; 1896, Preparazione agli esami; 1898, Alla banca di beneficenza).
