Description from the seller
Oil on canvas – Federico Schianchi (1846–1926)
Regatta on the Tiber with a View of Castel Sant’Angelo
Artist: Federico Schianchi (Modena, 1846 – Rome, 1926)
Title: Regatta on the Tiber with a View of Castel Sant’Angelo
Technique: Oil on canvas
Period: 19th century
School: Italian – Roman circle
Condition: Excellent, with vivid chromatic tones and a well-preserved painted surface
Frame: Included, consistent with the photographs
Provenance: Private collection
Description:
This refined oil on canvas (is one of the few oil paintings of Schianchi) depicts a lively regatta on the Tiber, animated by figures rendered with quick, luminous brushstrokes, while the monumental architecture of Castel Sant’Angelo dominates the background. The work fully reflects the sensibility of Federico Schianchi, a 19th‑century painter known for his urban and river views, characterized by soft light and a descriptive realism attentive to everyday life.
The style of the painting aligns with the tradition of the romantic veduta: a balance between animated scene and monumentality, clear brushwork, poetic atmosphere, and a landscape rendering that blends observation with sentiment.
