Born in 1904, Renzo De Benedetti was largely influenced by the 1920s growing up. Significant artistic innovations that had been established in the earlier part of the 20th century continued to be developed during the 1920s and 1930s. During this period the careers of many influential and pioneering artists began to flourish, yet at the same time there was an atmosphere of reflection and solemnity following the horrors of the First World War. He painted alot of the views in Venice as well as other pictures including portraits. He died in 1958.
