Francesco Netti Painted on Wood

About the Item

Francesco Netti, (Santeramo in Colle (Bari) 1832-Naples 1894) Oil on the table The work is accompanied by a study by Prof. Christine Farese Sperken. Francesco Netti spends almost fifty years of his life away from his family and his country of origin. In 1843, in Naples, he studied at the San Carlo alle Martelle college of the Piarist fathers and in Naples he graduated in law. He has private painting lessons with Domenico Morelli and in 1855 he entered the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples; he then continued his painting studies in Rome (1856-1859) and made educational trips to Florence, Turin, Venice, Padua, Ferrara, Bologna and Ravenna. He makes friends with artists, including Achille Carrillo, Giuseppe Bonolis, Tommaso De Vivo, Michele De Napoli, Adriano Cecioni, Marco De Gregorio, Giuseppe De Nittis, Federico Rossano, Camillo Miola. During his long stay in Naples he joined the artistic movement of the School of Resìna, founded in 1863 by Marco De Gregorio (1829-1876) and which had as affiliates, among others, the Tuscan Adriano Cecioni, the Barletta Giuseppe De Nittis, the Neapolitan Federico Rossano, Enrico Gaeta and the Sicilian Antonino Leto. This group of painters, active in Naples from 1863 to 1867 - and in a more discontinuous way until 1875 - opposed academicism, of which Domenico Morelli was a representative, and was oriented towards enhancing the study from life, the precise representation and light of the urban and rural landscape, careful observation of nature, attention to the landscape and light effects all aspects that Netti will make its own.
