Filippo Palizzi Figurative Paintings

1812-1888

Filipppo Palizzi is remembered as the renovator of 19th-century Neapolitan painting, because he abandoned the academic style to devote himself to the study of truth, especially of landscapes and animals, in harmony with contemporary French experiences, directing his painting towards a realism of intimate poetic intonation. In 1837, Palizzi was in contact with the Posillipo school in Naples, which helped make him abandon academic painting. In 1855, he was traveling for studies in Holland, Belgium and France; he returned to Paris in 1865 and 1875. From 1878 to 1880, Palizzi directed the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples with the intention of making the teaching of the artistic disciplines in step with the times. Following the example of A. van Pitloo and G. Smargiassi, he devoted himself to the study of truth, in the most humble subjects such as small landscapes and squares of animals, referring back to the tradition of 17th-century Dutch animalists, but with more discovered, fully 19th-century naturalism. A research that matured in contact with contemporary French experiences, kept alive thanks to the relationships with his brother Giuseppe, also a painter and friend of De Nittis. The most conspicuous groups of works by Palizzi are found in the Gallery of Modern Art in Rome and in that of the Capodimonte Museum in Naples.

Bullfighting Scene oil on board painting
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Title: Bullfighting Scene Artist: José María Tuser Vázquez (1919-1986) Technique: Oil on board Dimensions: 25.6 x 21.3 in (65 x 54 cm) Frameless Period: Second half of the 20th century Art Movement: Figurative Expressionism with Impressionist influences Condition: Good, with visible signs of aging on the surface DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK This painting captures a crucial moment in a bullfight, where the matador, dressed in a dazzling traje de luces (suit of lights), elegantly holds the red cape (muleta) while facing a wounded bull. The scene conveys tension and drama through energetic and loose brushwork, with strong contrasts of light and color that enhance its expressiveness. The abstract background, built with gestural brushstrokes in warm, earthy tones, reinforces the dynamism and immediacy of the moment. The thick texture of the paint and the vibrant colors in the matador's attire and cape are characteristic of Figurative Expressionism, giving the work a strong emotional impact. Tuser masterfully captures the essence of movement and the intensity of the bullfight through a painterly approach reminiscent of Impressionism, but with a greater emphasis on gesture and expressive color, making his work stand out for its raw energy and dramatic depth. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY José María Tuser Vázquez (Barcelona, 1919 - 1986) was a Spanish painter specialized in bullfighting themes, gaining recognition in the 20th-century art scene for his expressive depictions of the corrida (bullfight). He studied at the School of Arts and Crafts in Barcelona, where he developed a strong mastery of color and composition. From 1947 onwards, his work focused almost entirely on bullfighting, creating posters, illustrations, and paintings that capture the emotion and spectacle of the arena. He was a frequent collaborator with El Ruedo magazine, where his illustrations and covers solidified his reputation. Additionally, in the 1940s, he designed series of postcards featuring traditional Spanish costumes for the Artigas Publishing House. His work has been auctioned in several art houses and is highly valued among collectors of bullfighting paintings. His influence and legacy in tauromaquia (bullfighting art...
