It is embellished with eighteen earth mined natural gemstones such: diamonds and one emerald. The piece is fitted at the reverse with a ring to wear as a necklace in a chain and a hinged pin bar with a mechanical lock to wear as a brooch. Vito Campanella Vito Campanella was an Argentine painter of Italian origin born in Monopoli, Bari on October 17, 1932. Before establishing himself in Buenos Aires in 1955, Campanella studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Brera in Milan and in cultural centers of important European artists. Campanella has had numerous solo and group exhibitions. At the age of 16, the young Campanella was selected to create a mural in the church of his hometown and shortly after he won the “Pintura delle Regione” prize in Naples. In 1952, at just 20 years old, he was invited to exhibit at the Annual Salon of Bari, then traveling to the beautiful city of Florence, where he participated in various cultural activities and began to travel his aesthetic path through abstract art, pop art and geometry, until he found his definitive style, surrealism. Later, thanks to the sculptor G. Rossi, there was a meeting with the person who finally defined his painting: the teacher Giorgio De Chirico, founder of the Scuola Metafisica movement, architect of Campanella's relationship with this philosophical current. In Rome, he met Salvador Dalí, who became an important reference for Campanella within surrealism. For a period, he lived in Milan, and took anatomy classes at the School of Fine Arts of the renowned Brera Academy, acquiring knowledge of harmony and proportion of the human body that would later be widely reflected in his work. There he began to become interested in the Latin American and Argentine painting movements of the 1950s and decided to reunite with his family, already settled in Argentina, without leaving aside his ties with Europe. Thus, he participated in the Metamorphosis Salon of the Grand Palais de Champs-Élysées and the Salon d'Autumne Vallambreuse, both in Paris. His Surrealist jewels have corroborated his gift as skilled goldsmith.
