Watercolour and mixed media painting - Giacinto Gigante - Italy 19th century

Giacinto Gigante is considered one of the best painters of the Neapolitan school of Posillipo. He was born in Naples in 1806, where he died in 1876. He created great works of rare beauty, especially Neapolitan views, such as this painting: it represents the Bank of Saint Lucia of the Gulf of Naples, with Mount Vesuvius in the background. The painting was created by using mixed media on cardboard, he uses white sulfur lead creating a particular effect as if the color were in relief. This work is to be considered among the best of his repertoire, and apart from some small traces of humidity, the state of conservation is excellent. Signature and description at the bottom.

Ho acquistato, online, due gioielli. Lo Staff di Passione Antiqua è disponibile, gentile e professionale. Spedizione coerente con i tempi del corriere. I due gioielli sono meravigliosi, molto più che le foto dal loro sito. Per quanto mi riguarda, un'esperienza molto positiva.

Gentile Vittorio, la ringraziamo di cuore per le splendide parole e per aver condiviso la sua esperienza con noi. Sapere che i gioielli hanno superato le aspettative e che il nostro servizio è stato all’altezza è per noi motivo di grande soddisfazione. Saremo lieti di accoglierla nuovamente, online o in negozio, per continuare a condividere la passione per i gioielli antichi. Un cordiale saluto, Il Team di Passione Antiqua
