About the Item

Bernard Hay Italian, 1864-1931 Oil on canvas 10 3/4 x 16 1/2 inches 18 3/4 x 13 inches overall Italian Venetian impressionist scene, with gondolas passing under a gondola bridge. Bernardo Hay studied painting with Altamura in Naples. In the early 1880s he lived briefly in Venice, Florence, and Bruges. In 1883 he participated in the annual art exhibitions in Milan (with four paintings: field of flowers , summer in Posillipo and two views of Venice) and Rome ( view of the Great Canal , the city of Bruges and a view of the Belgian countryside). Around 1885 he exhibited in Turin ( Portrait of Carmanella , spring flower and Marine landscape of Resina). He returned to Naples in the late 1880s and thereafter mainly made views of scenes and people around the Gulf of Naples. In 1889 he still lived in Naples and later settled on Capri. Apart from the few known views of Bruges and Belgium, landscape views of the Gulf of Naples as well as portrait studies of the simple Neapolitan population were among the artist's preferred subjects. There were also some views of Venice. Only oil paintings by Hay are known. Information about the artist's death varies sometimes with 1931 on Capri and sometimes with 1934 in Naples. He was known by the nickname Pito ( German the little one ).
