Michela De Vito, Costume Of Ischia, Ink And Watercolor, 1830s

Chairish

$592

Costume of Ischia is an original Watercolour drawing on ivory-colored stuck on paper, 1830 c.a. Not-signed. Good Conditions. Image Dimensions: 18.5 x 14 cm. The artwork represents skilfully the traditional costume of Ischia through harmonious colors Michela De Vito In the 19th Century, Michela De Vito native of Abruzzi, worked in Naples and became a famous artist. She was maybe the daughter or sister of Camillo de Vito, a renowned painter of guaches above all of views and scenes of everyday life. Sometimes she is mistaken with Michele de Vito. “A refined painter, very skilled when it came to drawings, she had the characteristic to make her subject more gentle, compared to her male colleagues"; this is how De Rosa and Trastulli describe her. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
