Description from the seller
Giuseppe Mozzoni (Gardone Val Trompia 1887–Brescia 1978)
Oil on cardboard
Period: 1930/1940
Giuseppe Mozzoni (1887–1978), a significant figure in twentieth-century Lombard painting, created works held in important historical-artistic and institutional settings in the Brescia area. These include the Portrait of Carolina Maria Squafichi (1943), held at the Casa di Dio Foundation in Brescia and listed in the cultural heritage catalogue of the Lombardy Region. His work as a fresco painter and decorator is also of particular note, as evidenced by works in historic and religious buildings in Gardone Val Trompia.
Measurements: 40 x 45.5 cm framed
Painting: 24 x 30 cm
“The Silence of Devotion”
- Lot presentation note – No reserve price
**The work is exceptionally being offered at auction with no reserve price, giving collectors and art enthusiasts a significant opportunity to acquire a refined painting by Giuseppe Mozzoni.
The portrait stands out for its appreciable painterly quality, vivid colours and expressive sensitivity, all of which enhance its artistic and collectible appeal.
The no-reserve sale represents a **special buying opportunity**, allowing the market to freely determine the final sale price, regardless of the work’s artistic and decorative qualities\.
Condition Report: work in good condition, with signs of age consistent with its period
*** Photographic note
Some photographs of the work were taken using professional studio lighting and spotlights to make the composition, details and painted surface easier to see. This lighting may cause slight differences in perceived colour and brightness compared with viewing the work in person. The photographs are for illustrative and documentary purposes only.
The frame is provided free of charge as a gift with the work and should therefore be regarded as an accessory, not included in the painting’s valuation. Given the inherent fragility of antique and gilded frames, any damage, detachment, breakage or loss of frame parts occurring during transport or shipping will not be eligible for a refund or compensation, nor may it be grounds for a dispute regarding the value of the work. The work will nevertheless be packed with the utmost care to ensure, as far as possible, safe transport.
