Giulio Romano Vercelli, born in Marcoregno in 1871, was an Italian painter who approached art self-taught, never attending any academy. In his youth, he embarked for Latin America, visiting Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, destination where several private collections of his paintings are found. During his stay in Paris, he decided to contact Claude Monet and Paul Cézanne personally, both artists would greatly influence his style. In his art, he was initially very close to Post-Impressionism and later to Fauvist painting, with a thick and aggressive brushwork. Giulio Romano Vercelli did not dedicate himself to a single genre, but ranged from genre scenes, landscapes, sacred painting and still life.
