Pair De Momi Antique Old Master Landscape Ruins Classical Oil Paintings Italian.
Angelo De Momi (Italian, 1905-aft.1968) was born in 1905 in Mestre, Venice (Veneto), Italy and studied art and painting restoration at the Accademia di Belle Arti, Venezia (Academy of Fine Arts of Venice, or Galleria dell’Accademia for short). He had many successful exhibitions and won several awards for his paintings, garnering critical acclaim by critics and the public alike. De Momi is primarily known for his Venetian scenes to include canal scenes, vista views, cityscapes/architectural buildings, harbor scenes, classical architectural ruins, and landscapes with villages. De Momi was inspired by painters from the late 15th Century Venetian School in the veduta style (Italian for: View) of cityscapes or vistas, painters such as, Francesco Lazzaro Guardi (Italian, 1712-1793) and Giovanni Antonio Canaletto (Italian, 1697-1768). Many of De Momi’s works reflect the veduta style and some of his paintings have an antiqued patina (darker paint glaze rub) applied to the surface to give the pieces an old world look & feel to them, making them look older than they really are. His paintings were represented by the well-known art company and dealers, Ranzini S.R.L. Produzioni Artistiche in Milan, Italy (Artistic Productions [now Foto Ranzini], 1876-Present). He typically would only sign his last name on his paintings as, ‘De Momi’.
