Agostino Aglio Art

1777-1857

Agostino Aglio was born on December 15, 1777, in Cremona, Italy. He was an Italian painter, draftsman, engraver and lithographer. Son of Gaetano and Anna Maria Mondoni, he was sent to Milan in 1789 to study with Giocondo Albertolli and then in Rome with the landscape artist Campovecchio Mantovano. In 1798, he volunteered in the Lombard Legion of the Cisalpine Republic. From 1799–1802, he traveled to Greece and Egypt with the architect William Wilkins, who invited him to England. He settled in England in 1803 and two years later he married Letitia Clarke. He decorated churches, theaters and villas, executed two portraits of Queen Victoria and several landscape paintings in watercolor. In 1849, he was struck by paralysis and continued to work with his left hand. Many of his paintings are kept at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. He died on January 30, 1857, in London.

TOBACCO ROAD Mid 20th Century Realism 1940 Drawing from the Novel WPA Literary 3 10 1/2 x 6 (sight), Signed David Fredenthal lower right. Framed by Lowy. Offered here is one of several original drawings by WPA artist David Fredenthal that were first published in the 1940 illustrated edition of the novel TOBACCO ROAD by Erskine Caldwell. Background on the Drawing Erskine Caldwell remarked, on seeing the work of David Fredenthal, 26-year-old painter: "That boy could draw my Tobacco Road people." A casual comment, it was enormously productive. The young painter was just finishing a two-year Guggenhcim Fellowship, preceded by a year's study in Paris, two one-man shows at New York's Downtown Gallery, and a fellowship at the Cranbrook Academy near Detroit. He was out in Colorado Springs when he heard what Caldwell had said about him. Fredenthal hadn't read Tobacco Road. He had not even seen the play - now breaking all records in its seventh year on Broadway. But he swapped a portrait for a second-hand Ford and headed East. In New York he learned that Dnell, Sloan & Pearce were bringing out a deluxe edition of Tobacco Road. But he had no entrée to the publishers, and Caldwell, to his disappointment, was out of town. So he drove on to Georgia to have a look at the Tobacco Road people. He found Dr. I. C. Caldwell, the author's father, in Wrens, Ga., going on his ministerial rounds among people like the Lesters. Fredenthal got a room from a couple who ran a 1-pump filling station...
