Odoardo Tabacchi
Odoardo Tabacchi was born in Valganna on December 20, 1831, and died in Milan in 1905. Tabacchi studied at the Brera Academy in Milan from 1845 and then continued his studies in Rome, Florence and Naples. Settled in his studio in Milan from 1860–68, he created monumental sculptures accepting several important public commissions. Among his most important works from this period are the monument to Cavour in Milan (with Antonio Tantardini), the monument to Arnaldo da Brescia and the Cuzzetti and Sedaboni tombs in the Vantiniano cemetery in Brescia, Paleocapa, Garibaldi in Turin, Foscolo and equestrian monument to Umberto I, in Asti in Piazza Cairoli. In 1867, Tabacchi succeeded Vincenzo Vela to the chair of sculpture at the Albertina Academy and focused on smaller figurative sculpture, especially naturalistic genre scenes, which earned him great popularity. He exhibited widely in Italy and Paris and Vienna. Amongst his students, he counted: Giacomo Ginotti (1845–97), Pietro Canonica (1869–1959), Davide Calandra (1856–1915), Edoardo Rubino (1871–1954), Giuseppe Realini and the famous Leonardo Bistolfi (1859–1933).
