Giulio Romano Vercelli
Giulio Romano Vercelli (1871–1951) was an Italian painter.
Career[edit]
When he turned 18, he left Italy for South America. After doing a few more paintings in that area, he travelled to Argentina and Uruguay. He then returned to Europe and settled in Paris for a time. There he came under the influence of Impressionism and took every opportunity to study the paintings of its best-known practitioners.
He returned to Italy, and settled in Turin, where he spent most of his life. In his later years, he gave up painting and devoted his time to teaching his children, Gemma and Renato, both of whom also became painters. He died in 1951.[1]
He specialized in portraits, landscapes, genre scenes, still lifes and flowers. He held many exhibitions in Italy but also exhibited in Paris, Nice, Marselles and South America. There are collections of his art in Buenos Aires, Curitiba, Genoa, Gualeguay, Montecatini Terme and Piacenza.[2]
