About the Item

Watercolour on ivory colored paper, 1820 c.a. Wonderful watercolour both for the drawing and for the fineness of the colours representing a woman in typical Italian costumes of XIX century. Very good condition except a small rip on lower margin. Michela De Vito In the XIX century, Michela De Vito native of Abruzzi, worked in Naples and became a famous artist. She was maybe the daughter or sister of Camillo de Vito, a reknown painter of guaches above all of views and scenes of everyday life. Sometimes she is mistaken with Michele de Vito. “A refined painter, very skilled when it came to drawings, she had the characteristic to make her subject more gentle, compared to her male collegues"; this is how De Rosa and Trastulli describe her.
