Max Svabinsky (1873-1962)

Max Švabinský (1873-1963) was a Czech painter🎨, draughtsman, graphic artist, and professor in Academy of Graphic Arts in Prague.
Švabinský is considered one of the more notable artists in the history of Czech painting and produced significant work during the first half of the 20th century.
He was relatively unusual among modernist artists in that his work was accepted by the communist regime; this was due at least in part to his having formed his artistic personality prior to 1900, prior to the advent of cubism. | © Wikipedia

Angelo Morbelli | Per 80 centesimi! 1895

L’opera di Angelo Morbelli, uno dei capolavori del Museo Borgogna, venne acquistata nel 1912 alla Mostra d’Arte della campagna irrigua tenutasi a Vercelli, a pochi anni dall'apertura al pubblico del Museo.
Il dipinto, firmato e datato 1895, ha avuto una lunga e tormentata elaborazione, come testimonia la corrispondenza fra l’artista e il collega Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo: iniziato nel 1893, venne ripreso prima di essere esposto nel 1895 alla Biennale di Venezia.
La tela assume un ruolo importante per la collezione, non solo per l’appartenenza alla corrente pittorica del Divisionismo, ma soprattutto per il soggetto fortemente connesso al territorio vercellese.
