CESARE BREVEGLIERI, a Milanese painter, attended the Brera Academy.

He loved Picasso and 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 every day, and to penetrate it without being taken in by appearances.

He worked actively and participated in Milan's cultural life and was bound by friendships with several painters, among whom Carlo Carrà, to whom he made a portrait, and Filippo De Pisis, of whom he loved the spontaneity and happiness of his working.

He spent the 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 theatres or on the Riviera, the people strolling along the seafront lined with palm trees, earning him 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.
