Modern Painting Signed Angelo Dall'Oca Bianca Crayons on Cardboard 40s

Head

Crayons and white lead on cardboard. On the back there is a label from the Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Verona, which auctioned off numerous works by the artist that it owned, and reporting the data of the work. The work is also accompanied by the purchase invoice from that auction in 1951, with the title of the work. Of humble origins, the Veronese artist Angelo Dall'Oca Bianca, even once he had become an established and appreciated artist, frequenting the Italian and international artistic-cultural environment, always maintained the bond with his city, a constant source of inspiration for his artistic production, and the bond with its poor; in 1939 he built the Villaggio Dall'Oca in Verona, for the benefit of the poor of the city, and in 1941 he made a will, leaving all his money and his paintings to the city of Verona for welfare works. His painting was always of a purely veristic nature, influenced above all by contact with Giacomo Favretto. Work presented in a frame.

Antique Painting Folly Oil on Canvas Italy Late XVIII Century

Oil on canvas. Second half of the 18th century. A portion of a large ruined architectural structure fills the entire scene: a porch surmounted by a balustrade, overgrown with plants, surrounds a courtyard where various popular figures move, busy with their activities. A bright blue sky surmounts the structure and the light filters through one of the arches to create a play of light and shadows under the portico. On the back of the frame there is an attribution to Gaetano Vetturali (1701-1783), even if the quality of the figures here appears superior to those of the artist from Lucca, who established himself in his territory for his architectural caprices of great scenographic impact. The painting is presented in a gilded frame in style.

Painting by Paolo Sala

Landscape with Figures and Sheep

Oil on canvas. Signed on the back. Paolo Sala, born and trained in Milan, stood out as one of the most important landscape painters of his period, as well as a view painter of the many Italian and foreign cities in which he worked. He preferred watercolours, but also painted a lot in oil. He uses quick and broad brushstrokes, overlapping, in an impressionist style, playing with colours and lights to create suggestive atmospheres, as in this countryside landscape, where two female figures entertain themselves sitting at the edge of the path, on the bank of the river, and a flock of sheep grazes on the opposite side. In a contemporary gilded frame, with the painter's name indicated in the centre of the lower edge.
