Pair of oil paintings on canvas. E. Zampighi (Modena, 1859 - 1944)

About the Item

Beautiful pair of oil paintings on canvas. Works by the renowned artist Eugenio Edoardo Zampighi. Truly rare paintings to find on the market due to their quality, number of characters, and paired execution. The paintings depict idyllic representations of an Italian family from the second half of the nineteenth century. Hence the titles of the paintings: "Center of Attention" "Admiring the Child" Period: Second half of the 19th century Origin: Modena, Italy Technique: Oil on canvas. Style: Verismo Details: Refinement: Zampighi's skill lies in depicting the figures as if a camera had simply captured a candid family scene. Golden Frames: Both paintings are enclosed within stunning golden frames. Ready to be hung. Recurring Elements: The white bowl, like the cat, the vinegar barrel, the water pitcher, and the lit fireplace are recurring elements in almost all of Zampighi's paintings. Authenticity: This pair of paintings are original works by the painter E. Zampighi (Modena, 1859 - 1944). Their analysis using infrared lamp does not detect any evident signs of reworking. The signatures are original and contemporaneous with the paintings. Viewing them from the back reveals that they have only been relined to ensure support.
