Raffaele De Grada Paintings
Italian, 1885-1957
Initially trained by his father, a decorator, in Argentina and then from 1899 in Zurich, De Grada attended the academies of Dresden and Karlsruhe during the period 1902–05. Influenced by the Swiss secession movement, he enjoyed success as a landscape painter from 1913.
He moved to San Gimignano after World War I, then to Florence, where he lived until 1929. He joined the Novecento Italiano movement and participated in their two exhibitions in Milan (1926 and 1929) as well as their exhibitions collective in other Italian and European cities. His participation in the Venice Biennale began by invitation with the 13th Venice International Art Exhibition in 1922.
After moving to Milan in 1930, he obtained a professorship at the Monza School of Art in 1931. Particularly known for his beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside, De Grada welcomed different generations of artists into his home, including members of the Corrente movement, with whom he also exhibited works in the collective exhibition of the Society of Fine Arts and the Permanent Exhibition in 1939. He participated in numerous exhibitions after the Second World War.

ROME - In the Manner of G. Vanvitelli -Italian Landscape Oil on Canvas Painting
By Vincenzo Montella
Located in Napoli, IT
Rome - Vincenzo Montella Italia 2009 - Oil on canvas cm. 40x50.
In this precious oil painting Vincenzo Montella is inspired by the views of the Dutch neutralized Italian painter Gaspar Adriaensz van Wittel, known as Casper, and known in Italy as Gaspare Vanvitelli. In particular this is a reinterpretation of the painting "View of the Tiber with Castel Sant'Angelo and San Pietro in the background" by Vanvitelli.
Taken from the left bank of the river, the view has its focal point in the circular mass of Castel Sant’Angelo, the pontifical fortress built on the central core of Hadrian's mausoleum and enriched with ramparts and patrol paths overlooking the water. In the background of the view, the Vatican basilica with the papal palaces responds to the vestiges of imperial power, while in the center the Sant'Angelo bridge, adorned with statues painted between 1669 and 1671 by Gian Lorenzo Bernini and his pupils, connects the two banks replacing the ancient Aelius bridge built by Hadrian.
No less interesting is the minor urban fabric...
