Franceso Masseria Portrait of a Young Girl, Oil on Canvas

About the Item

Oil on Canvas by Argentine artist Francisco Masseria (1927-2002) Oil on Canvas measuring 20"h x 16"w. The Frame is: 26"h x 22"w. The image is a beautiful portrait of a young girl. The work is signed upper left and is in excellent condition. Francisco J. J. C. Masseria was born in 1926 in Parana, Argentina. Masseria's parents were Italian. Although none of his family were artists, Masseria showed a talent for art when he was quite young. His first achievement came at the age of fourteen when exhibiting at the Salon Annuale of Entre Rios where he earned his first gold medal. Masseria’s paintings appear to be exquisitely classic ~ the luminous angelic faces, the serene gaze of the untroubled, the Renaissance like costumes. But the backgrounds are of another time and place; whirling, swirling abstract masses. In the faces of his portraits Masseria attains a lyrical response to the human form, especially in developing the typically romantic serenity of the eyes. Francisco traveled across the continents of the Americas from Rio to Los Angeles to New York achieving great acclaim for his work. A series of personal exhibitions from 1950 to 1964 brought him into the major circles of the art world.
