Cesare Maggi
Il Cervino (The Matterhorn)

About the Item

Image dimensions: 51cm x 71cm Framed dimensions: 66.5cm x 87.2cm Signed lower right. Born to a family of successful actors in Rome, Cesare Maggi (1881 – 1961) was encouraged to paint from infancy. Training under the well-known genre painters Vittorio Corcos and Gaetano Esposito in his teens, Maggi would first exhibit at the Florentine academy in 1898 at the age of 17. His success at this exhibition lead to a visit to Paris to familiarise himself with the continent’s latest artistic styles, further honing his rapid development as a professional painter. While Maggi was known in his early career as a leading divisionist painter, the artist’s most lauded works are his mountain landscapes. His bold lighting and virtuoso understanding of the myriad tones of white enabled him to capture the startling brightness of the Alps. From his prestigious position as chair of the Albertina Academy in Turin, Maggi would spend his career cataloguing the great peaks of Europe in his breath-taking panoramas.
