Dorchester Fine Art has dated this Vittorio Reggianini Oil Painting to the 1920s.
Born in Modena, Italy in 1858, Reggianini was part of a group of artists called the “Costume Painters,” who sought to revive the sophistication of the past by painting a romanticized version of the culture during a time of great military conflict. He skillfully painted contemporary fashion and opulence, especially focused on painting the silks and satins of dresses and floor and wall coverings. He studied and later taught at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Modena, Italy. The artist died in 1938.
