Emilio Donnini Tuscan Landscape, Oil on Canvas with Gilt Frame
By Emilio Donnini
Located in Prato, IT
Tuscan landscape with bridge over a stream and peasant women Signed "E. Donnini", bottom right Gilded frame Oil on canvas, cm H83,5 x W60 Emilio Donnini (Florence, 1809 - Florence, 1886) was an Italian painter. There is no information regarding Donnini's pictorial training, whose documented activity, exercised in his Florentine studio in via del Maglio, began in 1843, the year in which he participated in the exhibition of the Florentine Promoter Society with View of a river with a bridge. Regular frequenter of the Caffè Michelangiolo, the meeting place of Macchiaioli painters, he regularly participates in the exhibitions organized by the Florentine Promoter Society of Fine Arts, starting from 1845 with Country of invention and View of a mill near Pisa and in 1847 with a series of views of Versilia. In the same year, his friend Antonio Puccinelli portrayed him in the Portrait of the painter Emilio Donnini: with the Pisan, Donnini shares patriotic and irredentist ideals and in all likelihood participates in the uprisings of 1848. In this period he approaches the Markò family, with whom he frequently moves between the Island of Elba, the Lazio and Tuscan countryside to paint landscapes en plein air, in the Macchiaioli way. In 1848 he painted Glimpses of Vicopisano, in 1849 he participated in the Promoter with a View of the Valdarno near Docciola, in 1850 with Marciana, View in the outlines of Seravezza and Marciana Marina. In 1852 he painted a marina for the walls of the Caffè Michelangiolo, in 1853 he participated in the Promoter with the Porto Lungone beach, Civitavecchia beach and Tramonto di sole sul mare. Starting from 1854 he is part of the artists of the Scuola di Staggia with the Markò, Serafino De Tivoli, Carlo Ademollo, Alessandro La Volpe, Lorenzo Gelati and Saverio Altamura and, in the same year, he was awarded by the Promoter for the Marina di Livorno paintings at the Ponte alla Sassara, Marina near Marciana with sun effect and View of a lake with sunset. In 1855 he participated in the Promotrice with Marina with boats, A road of Mugello near Vicchio, The furnaces of Prince Corsini in the Valdarno and Lo stradone del Gombo, in 1856 with Campagne Senesi, in 1857 with Paese del Mugello with bather, in 1858 he was awarded the Silver medal with A morning on the sea, where he also exhibits Country near Pisa, The mountains of Marciana, Rio beach...

Walter Shirlaw, Study for Decorative Panel
Located in Bruxelles, BE
Walter Shirlaw (1838-1909) Study for decorative panel Pencil and watercolor on paper mounted on paperboard Measures: 62.5 x 74 x 5 cm (with frame) 50.5 x 62 (without the frame) Signed in the circle lower right Born near Glasgow in Scotland, Walter Shirlaw settled with his family in New York in 1841, when he was two or three years old. As a young boy, he took night classes at the National Academy of Design, and first exhibited his work there in 1861. The first years of his career were spent as an engraver at the American Bank-Note Company, while at the same time attempting to establish himself as a painter. He later moved to Chicago, where he continued to work as an banknote engraver and also taught art at the Chicago Academy of Design. In 1870, at the relatively late age of thirty-two, Shirlaw travelled to Europe to study. Prevented from settling in Paris by the Franco-Prussian War, he instead studied in Munich, where he joined the small group of American painters working in the city, including Frank Duveneck and William Merrit Chase...
