Ruggero Panerai 19th Century Signed Painting

About the Item

An important oil on panel painting by the great Tuscan artist Ruggero Panerai. It depicts one of his favourite and most successful subjects, wild horses portrayed in a natural pose of rare intensity and elegance. This subject, one of the Macchiaioli artist's most sought-after, has become iconic in his production; the horses, portrayed in three-quarter view, show all their power, and at the same time their grace.

This painting, never before on the market, comes from a private collection and is beautified by an impressive antique frame in gilded wood, in almost perfect condition.

The dimensions are frame included Ruggero Panerai (Florence, 19 March 1862 - Paris, 27 October 1923) was an Italian painter and illustrator. At the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, which he attended from 1877 to 1881, he was taught by Giovanni Fattori who introduced him to naturalistic landscape painting of the Tuscan Maremma. Belonging to the second generation of Macchiaioli, Panerai was also attracted to military subjects and distinguished himself as an animal painter, endowed with acute sensitivity. His impressionism - sketchy, easy, fresh, lively - was inspired by the works of Guido Carocci. He painted Strada fiorentina con carrozze (Florentine Road with Carriages), 1882, and Alla stazione (At the Station), 1885, the year in which he also painted Il passaggio degli artiglierii (The Artillerymen's Passage). In 1885, he painted Return from the Races at the Cascine, a painting influenced by the bourgeois and worldly gaze of Giuseppe De Nittis and the manner of Vittorio Matteo Corcos. In 1887 his painting Il guado (The Ford), presented in Venice, was destined for the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rome, but entered the 'Pisani' Gallery instead. Ruggero Panerai exhibited in 1887 in Genoa and Florence; then in Milan, where he won the 'Fumagalli' prize, 1911 at the Galleria d'arte moderna in Palazzo Pitti, the Galleria d'arte moderna in Milan owns Butteri in Maremma. In 1888, he exhibited the painting Mazzeppa in Paris, a subject taken from Lord Byronːs poem of the same name; the painting depicts a small herd of horses. He was appointed professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna. Around the 1890s, he again portrayed subjects from 19th century Florence in a more delicate colour scheme and later painted genre scenes. In 1892, his painting Evening was awarded a prize by the Florentine Society of Fine Arts. This artwork is shipped from Rome.

  • 19th Century Enrico Coleman Signed Painting
    By Enrico Coleman
    Located in Roma, IT
    An important painting by one of the most representative Italian artists of the 19th century, Enrico Coleman. It depicts a village most probably from Lazio, perhaps a glimpse of Anticoli Corrado, the town famous for the attractiveness of its models, or rather Subiaco, his mother's birthplace. The atmosphere here is typical of the XXVs of the Roman Campagna of which Enrico Coleman was probably the most important exponent. The reason for this can also be seen in this small masterpiece that captures the washerwomen in their occupation immersed in a poetically bucolic atmosphere; a sky of unparalleled blue stands out in the background. Signed below on the right This painting, never before on the market, comes from an important Italian private collection and is beautified by an impressive antique frame in gilded wood, in almost perfect condition. Every item of our Gallery, upon request, is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Sabrina Egidi official Expert in Italian furniture for the Chamber of Commerce of Rome and for the Rome Civil Courts. Oil painting on paper Enrico Coleman (21 or 25 June 1846 – 14 February 1911) was an Italian painter of British nationality. He was the son of the English painter Charles Coleman and brother of the less well-known Italian painter Francesco Coleman. He painted, in oils and in watercolours, the landscapes of the Campagna Romana and the Agro Pontino; he was a collector, grower and painter of orchids. Because of his supposedly Oriental air, he was known to his friends as "Il Birmano", the Burmese. Enrico Coleman was born in Rome in June 1846. He was the fourth child of the English painter Charles Coleman, who had come to Rome in 1831 and settled there permanently in 1835, and of a famous artist's model from Subiaco, Fortunata Segadori (or Segatori), whom he had married in 1836. Coleman was initially taught by his father, did study at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome. Following the mocking reception of Una mandria di bufali nelle paludi pontine, a naturalistic painting of a herd of buffaloes in the Pontine marshes, at the International Artist's Club in 1872,he reportedly began to paint genre subjects in the manner of the then-fashionable Mariano Fortuny, although no works showing the influence of the Spanish painter are known. At the instigation of Nino Costa, he soon returned to the depiction of the people, animals and landscapes of the Campagna Romana and the Agro Pontino. Coleman was lover of orchids, which he painted, collected and cultivated. An 1894 watercolour of orchids is in the Galleria Comunale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Rome. Coleman had a remarkable collection of indigenous orchids, which he cultivated himself in his house at 6 via Valenziana and the botanist Fabrizio Cortesi named the hybrid Orchis x colemanii Cortesi in his honour. In 1875, Coleman was among the founding members of the Società degli Acquarellisti, the Roman society of watercolourists; he participated in the society's first exhibition in 1876, and continued to exhibit with them until 1907. In 1878 he was elected an honorary member of the Société Royale Belge des Aquarellistes, the Belgian royal society of watercolourists, with which he participated in the Salon de Paris in 1879 and to the 4th Esposizione Nazionale di Belle Arti, or national fine art show, of Turin in 1880, and to that of Milan in the following year; he showed works in London in 1882 and in Rome in 1883. In 1885, Coleman was among the founding members of the group In Arte Libertas, of which Nino Costa was the leading force and the other founding members were Vincenzo Cabianca...
