About the Item

Vittorio Cajani's painting entitled La Forza Del Destino. Vittorio Cajani was a Turin painter born in 1848 who saw his greatest output in the second half of the 19th century. His depictions often dealt with scenes of horses or everyday populous life. The painting is painted in oil on canvas and depicts a battlefield, in the left foreground are a horse and a fallen soldier while centrally there is surviving horse intent on searching through the rubble. Light filters from the upper right through the cloud of ash and dust from the violent battle that just ended. Note the painter's ability to give a sense of tragedy through painting. The painting is signed in the lower left corner, and on the back in the frame is written in pencil the title - The Force of Destiny - and the signature. Measurements of canvas only : Height 29.5 cm; Width 59 cm.
