Eugenio Spreafico (Monza, April 2, 1856 – Magreglio, January 7, 1919) was an Italian painter, mainly of landscapes and genre works. ==Biography== While he was born and resident in Monza, he trained at the Brera Academy in Milan, where he trained with Francesco Hayez and Giuseppe Bertini. He began exhibiting at the Brera in 1880. His landscapes mainly depict the Lombard countryside and the area around Magreglio in Lago di Como.〔( Istituto Matteucci ) biography on Spreafico.〕 Among his works, he exhibited in 1881 at Milan: ''April''; ''Pioggia di foglie autunnali''; ''I fiori del Sagrestano''; ''Tramonto''; ''Bosco''; and a genre canvas titled ''In processione'',. In the same city, in 1883, he displayed: ''Quanto sa di sale, lo pane altrui''; ''Benedizione delle case''; ''Love in the Studio''. In 1883 at Roma: ''Return to Cascina'' and ''In a Park of Monza''. At the 1884 Exhibition of Fine Arts at Turin: ''Nozze paesane''; ''L'Ave Maria del mattino''; ''Saturday''. In 1886, at Milan: ''In Cascina''; ''Puerpera''; ''Idyl''; and ''Dal mercato''. In 1887 at Venice: ''Gioie''; ''Dolori''; and''Lavoro''. The painting ''Mamme contadine coi bimbi in collo in giorno di festa'' was exhibited at the Fumagalli of Milan. At the 1988 Exposition of Fine Arts of Bologna, he had two paintings illustrating verses of Dante: ''A fulgore et a Tempestate'' and ''Libera Nos Domine'', also exhibited at Milan. Angelo De Gubernatis was to say of him that: ''His brush has an extraordinary sensibility of impressions, and responds, interprets with a surety of his guiding hand and mind: no uncertainty, no regrets, no fatigue ever reach: whether he wishes to render a feast of light, or allow penumbra to flood the landscape, Spreafico intends to make a canvas to express his feeling as felt, and the mark of the realism emerges always equally, always strong.''〔( ''Dizionario degli Artisti Italiani Viventi: pittori, scultori, e Architetti.'' ), by Angelo de Gubernatis. Tipe dei Successori Le Monnier, 1889, page 493-494.〕 He also was known for his portraits.〔( Portrait by Spreafico ).〕 The Galleria d'Arte Moderna of Milan has nearly half a dozen of his works.〔( GAM Milan ) Works by Spreafico.〕 The painter Leonardo Spreafico (born 1907) is a direct descendant and pupil of Eugenio.〔(Short biography ) of Leonardo Spreafico for a retrospective. It is unclear to the present author if Leonardo was the son or grandson of Eugenio.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eugenio Spreafico」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
