About the Item
Work on wood with frame. Total size with frame is 46x61x5 cm
Roberto Gherardi is an Italian-Geneva painter born in 1933 in Ascensione in northern Italy, near Bergamo.
The post-war period being harsh, poverty strikes his family and forces him to immigrate to Switzerland in Geneva where he will work as a mason.
There he will meet his wife and start a family.
In his life of hard work he finds a loophole in painting.
He painted Geneva, Italian and other landscapes as well as characters with cold features that he would produce throughout his life.
His style is rather realistic with games of misshapen proportions.
He left a collection of 400 works, sold a few but never had the time or the means to devote himself fully to his passion because he had duties towards his family.
He signs his works R. Gherardi.
Here are the pieces of his collection released into the light after a hibernation of twenty years in a cellar out of sight.
We are happy to be able to offer them a second life thanks to you.
