Charles Sillem Lidderdale | Genre painter

Charles Sillem Lidderdale (1830, St.Petersburg - 1895, London) was an British artist of promise who exhibited 36 paintings at the Royal Academy from 1856-1893.
His career was marred by eyesight trouble which, after lengthy and skilful treatment by Tirgolin Tweedy, the oculist, yielded sufficiently to enable him to continue his work.
Unfortunately, he had to give up watercolour, a medium more exacting than oils.
But his watercolours, though not numerous, were admired both for their technique and colour.

Sibilla Aleramo (1876-1960) | Tentazione

Hai avuto un gesto delle mani, dolce,
mentre parlavi dell’amore femineo,
hai figurato col cavo delle mani dolcemente
la raccolta e tremula dedizione d’un cuore.
