Telemaco Signorini | Macchiaioli Art Movement

Telemaco Signorini (1835-1901) was an Italian artist who belonged to the group known as the Macchiaioli.

He was born in the Santa Croce quarter of Florence, and showed an early inclination toward the study of literature, but with the encouragement of his father, Giovanni Signorini, a court painter for the Grand Duke of Tuscany, he decided instead to study painting.

In 1852 he enrolled at the Florentine Academy, and by 1854 he was painting landscapes En Plein air.

The following year he exhibited for the first time, showing paintings inspired by the works of Walter Scott and Machiavelli at the Florentine Promotrice.

Camille Pissarro: "Paint the essential character of things.."

‣ "Painting, art in general, enchants me. It is my life. What else matters? When you put all your soul into a work, all that is noble in you, you cannot fail to find a kindred soul who understands you, and you do not need a host of such spirits. Is not that all an artist should wish for?"

‣ "Dipingi solo con i tre colori fondamentali e i loro immediati complementari".

‣ "Don't be afraid in nature: one must be bold, at the risk of having been deceived and making mistakes".

‣ "Non aver paura della natura: devi essere audace correndo il rischio di rimanere deluso e di commettere errori".
