Arnaldo Ferraguti
(Ferrara 1862–1925 Forli)
Washerwomen in Pallanza, Lago Maggiore, signed A Ferraguti, oil on canvas, 96 x 77 cm, framed, (GG)
Provenance:
Aldo Moriggi Collection, Buenos Aires;
Cerutti Gallery, Milan; Auction Geri, Milan, 1971;
Italian private collection.
Following a period of study under Domenico Morelli (1823-1901) at the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples where he enrolled in 1879, in 1883 Ferraguti forged a close friendship with the painter Francesco Paolo Michetti (1851-1929) with whom he painted dal vero. With his motifs of the countryside and its inhabitants, Michetti remained a constant source of inspiration. Both artists were equally adept at pastels and oils.
During the 1890s he painted subjects including farmers and washerwomen, as in the present composition.
A photograph of the present work was printed on 31 July 1898 on page 79 of l’Illustrazione Italiana.
