Cesare-Auguste Detti (Italian, 1847-1914)


Cesare Agostino Detti, or Cesare-Auguste Detti (1847, Spoleto - May 19 1914, Paris) was an Italian painter🎨, best known for his historical genre scenes, largely from the 17th and 18th Centuries, inspired by the Troubadour style.
His father, Davide Detti, was an engineer and an amateur painter. As a result, his early interest in art was encouraged.
In 1861, he made the acquaintance of Francesco Coghetti, a painter from Rome who was creating murals at the Teatro Nuovo (now known as the Teatro Nuovo Gian Carlo Menotti).
Coghetti suggested that Detti receive formal training at the Accademia di San Luca, where he was a professor.

Remzi Taskiran, 1961

Nato ad Adıyaman in Turchia, Remzi Taşkıran ha completato gli studi superiori ad Istanbul. Ha ottenuto la sua educazione artistica dal pittore Saadettin Çağlarca.
L'artista, che ha lavorato per qualche tempo come pittore di stampa, ha opere che sono state esposte in collezioni sia in patria che all'estero.
Pittore professionista - Taşkıran ha aperto un suo studio ad Istanbul, dove impiega del tempo per creare temi unici per la sua arte, prevenendo le preoccupazioni della vita quotidiana mentre si prepara per le sue mostre.
In particolare nei suoi dipinti basati sulle impressioni locali, si osserva che va oltre le sue azioni quotidiane e crea dipinti originali in cui il suo spirito, coscienza, capacità ed istinti vengono alla luce.
La vicinanza ai valori tradizionali di Taşkıran è evidenziata agli occhi della critica come capacità di ritrarre uno stile pittorico unico.

Ilya Repin (Russian, 1844 -1930)


Ilya Yefimovich Repin /Илья Ефимович Репин was a Russian realist painter. He was the most renowned Russian artist of the 19th century, when his position in the world of art was comparable to that of Leo Tolstoy in literature. He played a major role in bringing Russian art into the mainstream of European culture.
His major works include Barge Haulers on the Volga (1873), Religious Procession in Kursk Province (1883) and Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks (1880–1891).
Repin persistently searched for new techniques and content to give his work more fullness and depth. Repin had a set of favorite subjects, and a limited circle of people whose portraits he painted. But he had a deep sense of purpose in his aesthetics, and had the great artistic gift to sense the spirit of the age and its reflection in the lives and characters of individuals.
