AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Wonderful work by painter Emilio Rizzi (Cremona, 1881- Brescia, 1952) painted in oil on cardboard in good condition.
The work measures 41x28 cm
The frame is original from the period.
Emilio Rizzi (Cremona, 1881- Brescia, 1952). His artistic training began in 1895 in Milan where he enrolled at the Brera Academy and attended the courses of Vespasiano Bignami, Giuseppe Mentessi and Cesare Tallone. In 1899 he was qualified to teach drawing, a profession that would occupy him for much of his life. Thanks to a scholarship, he perfected his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome where he studied with Antonio Mancini, the Dazzi, and Biazzi, the sculptor Zanelli, and where he also taught a course of lessons. The Roman period is characterized by an attention to divisionist painting. He began a pilgrimage through the Lazio provinces during which his passion for rural and mountainous landscapes was born. From 1909 his stay in Paris began where he had the opportunity to exhibit several times at the Salon des Indépendants. In 1910 he won a gold medal at the First Exhibition of Art in Cremona and in 1911 he participated in the International Art Exhibition of Rome. In 1913 he was awarded the “Palme accademiche,” the highest artistic recognition for foreigners. The Paris period marks a particularly important moment in the artist's career, during which he matured a personal style and mainly produced portraits of French ladies. technically, the final color is the result of the interweaving of multiple brushstrokes and the underlying drawing is very carefully executed. Beginning in 1921 his stay in Brescia began where he continued portraiture, refining himself more and more, especially in delineating the psychological traits of faces. From 1927 to 1930 he spent a period near Venice where he had the chance to find a new inspiration for his works, in which lagoon scenes and fishermen appear. The last period of his career takes place in Franciacorta where the artist finds new subjects for his works. Emilio is among the founders of the Brescia Art Academy, of which he became an honorary member and in which he staged his last exhibition.
