About the Item

Oil on canvas realized by Franco Marzilli (1934-2010) in 1970s. Hand signed lower right. Very good condition. Franco Marzilli was born in Rome in 1934. He received his first artistic training by attending the Preparatory School for Ornamental Arts in Rome, continuing a personal pictorial research inspired by the typical atmospheres of the artists of the Roman School. He began exhibiting in 1962 in various Italian galleries and, between the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s, he was invited to present his work in New York, London and Paris, where he lived for a short period.  Back in Italy, he expanded his study of sculpture applied to both bronze and ceramics.  Through the use of colors obtained from the skilful manual dosage of earths and oils spread on the canvas with soft brushstrokes, Marzilli renews classical themes by restoring the typical dimensions of urban views, especially Roman ones, of dancers at rest, of fruit compositions and of landscapes of the Sabine countryside. Among the many exhibitions in private galleries and public spaces, noteworthy are the solo shows at the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences of Cardiff University in 1973 and at the Sala de Exposiciones of the City of Buenos Aires in 1997.
