— Cino Bozzetti 1876-1949

Italy, Mazzotta, 2001. Softbound. Color pictorial wraps, 119pp, profuse BW illustrations. Text is in Italian. (Art Library). Chinese Sketches (Lecce, 1876 - Borgoratto, 1949), painter and engraver, forms a self-taught in Turin, where he moved in his youth, in an artistic context strongly influenced by the experience of Fontanesi. His art is inspired by the landscapes of the Alexandrian, sometimes reproduced, often transformed through the addition of symbolic elements. In his language the search for its refined and elegant is always accompanied by a strong spiritual and religious tension. The book presents a wide selection anthology of works by Cino Designs: paintings, etchings, watercolors and drawings allow the reader to grasp every aspect of the art teacher. The volume, which in addition to the essay by the curator also presents an anthology of critical writings and some very significant artist, is an indispensable tool for the reconstruction and critical reappraisal of the work of Sketches. VG, slight wear to edges, some creasing on spine .
