Nicolas De Corsi — son of the Italian consul in the Ukrainian city of Odessa and Emma Suppinich, was born in 1882. A year after his birth his father died, and two years later his mother remarried the Spanish noble Gutierrez, who was also a consul in Russia.
The following year the whole family moved to Madrid, where the young painter received his training. In 1896, following the death of his stepfather, he went to Italy, particularly Rome, where he attended first the Free Academy of S. Lucia (from which he was later expelled) and then the evening school of the Artistic Circle, and to Naples.
In 1900 the painter went on holiday to Torre del Greco (an event that proved very important in the painter’s life). He subsequently participated in numerous exhibitions (National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Milan; Autumn Salon in Paris; IX International Exhibition of Venice; Rome Quadrennial).
