From the "experimental" works accomplished, between the middle of the nineteenth century, up to the masterpieces of the sixties, the Macchiaioli artists mark a significant moment for the arts, showing a strong desire to modernize the figurative languages
I Macchiaioli
On its way to becoming a village at the end of the 19th Century (with the hand of Giambattista Righi di Strembo), its eventual transformation is attributed to the efforts of Franz Joseph Oesterreicher, who raised its status to that of a highly sought-out resort for nobility and for rich Austrian and Middle-European bourgeois society.
The exhibition focuses on the antecedents, birth and highly successful debut period of Macchiaioli painting, spanning the experimentation of the 1850s and the masterpieces of the 1860s.
