Gaetano Pompa was an Italian artist who began his artistic career after the war conflict in Rome, where he moved with his family to start his studies and to paint and engrave. From 1958–61, he lived in the Schwabing district of Munich, carrying out an intense artistic activity and participating with great passion in the musical life of the Bavarian city. Back in Italy, he married Dorothea Leendertz, known in Germany, with whom he had five children. Since then Pompe lived and operated in Rome and from 1970 between Ansedonia and Orbetello.
