Giuseppe Bernardino Bison (16 June 1762, Palmanova - 24 August 1844, Milan) was an itinerant Italian painter of frescoes, landscapes, vedute, capriccios and some religious works. ==Biography == When he was still a boy, his family moved to Brescia, where he saw the works of Girolamo Romani and decided to become a painter. Later, his family moved again, to Venice, and he began his studies with Anton Maria Zanetti (The Younger), then enrolled at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia, where he worked with Costantino Cedini.〔(Brief biography ) from the ''Dizionario biografico degli Italiani'' - Volume 10 (1968) @ Treccani.〕 While there, he became friends with the architect Gian Antonio Selva, and went with him to Ferrara in 1787 to help decorate the Palazzo Bottoni.〔Brief biography by Daniele D'Anza @ Arte Ricerca (blocked link)〕 Shortly after, he was in Padua, working as a set designer for the Obizzi family and, in 1790, was commissioned to do decorations for the Castello del Catajo.〔 Two years later, he did similar work at the Palazzo Maffetti-Manzoni, then moved to Treviso, where he did frescoes on the ceiling of the Church of Saint Andrew in Volpago del Montello, the oratory of the Villa Bragadin in Ceggia and secular decorations for several villas in Lancenigo and Breda di Piave. From 1798 to 1800, he collaborated with Selva on decorations at the Palazzo Dolfin Manin in Venice.〔 Moving on to Trieste, he collaborated with Matteo Pertsch and the sculptor Antonio Bosa (1780-1845) to provide decorations for the Palazzo Carciotti and the stock exchange building.〔 In 1811, he was in Zara, working at the Palazzo del Governatore. This was followed by decorative work (now lost) at the theaters in Vipacco and Gorizia.〔 At this time, he began to take advantage of a growing market for paintings in the homes of well-to-do non-aristocrats and, working in conjunction with a local art dealer named Tosoni, produced a wide variety of landscapes, vedute and other genres to satisfy local tastes.〔 His canvases were expensive, but also very large. In 1831, despite his successes in Trieste, he began wandering again, returning briefly to Brescia, then settling in Milan where he took some smaller commissions, but was not very successful and died poor.〔 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「Giuseppe Bernardino Bison」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
