Domenico Colao Art

1881-1943

Domenico Colao was an Italian painter who was influenced by Macchiaioli's lesson. He also had Giovanni Fattori as a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence. After a Macchiaioli formation, in 1904 Domenico Colao went to Paris, where he remained until 1911. After the First World War, for which he was called to the army, he continued his activity as a painter, devoting attention to the landscapes and life of his native Calabria. From 1922 to 1927, he was part of the Calabrian artistic group together with Umberto Diano, Alessandro Monteleone, Ezio Roscitano and Carmine Tripodi. He has exhibited his paintings in numerous exhibitions in Rome, Milan, Naples, Florence and Pittsburg, and in six editions of the Venice Biennale. Colao was also an honorary professor of the Institute of Fine Arts of Florence, Naples and Perugia. Some of his works are found in the Modern Art Galleries of Rome and Florence.

Martyl Schweig Victor Colorado 1942 Ghost Town Landscape Oil Painting

By Martyl Suzanne Schweig Langsdorf

Located in Denver, CO

A historically significant 1942 American modernist oil painting by Martyl Schweig Langsdorf depicting Victor, Colorado, a high-altitude mining ghost town nestled within the Rocky Mountains. The composition captures the stark beauty and atmospheric stillness of a fading Western settlement, where abandoned structures, rugged terrain, and expansive mountain forms merge into a powerful narrative landscape. Painted in oil on masonite, the work features Schweig’s expressive plein-air brushwork and a richly grounded palette of deep greens, muted golds, earthy browns, and atmospheric grays. The paint handling is both fluid and structured, emphasizing light, elevation, and the emotional weight of the post–Gold Rush landscape rather than strict topographical accuracy. This early American modernist Western painting carries strong narrative presence while remaining visually balanced, making it highly effective in both traditional interiors and more contemporary, curated environments. Created in 1942 during Schweig’s Colorado painting trips with fellow artist Adolph Dehn...
