Luigi Mantovani
Luigi Mantovani was an Italian painter. He studied painting at the Brera Academy in Milan.
From the beginning, Luigi Mantovani's cityscapes are characterised by broken strokes and a light, transparent palette. In the 1940s, when he took up painting again after a long break due to the Second World War, he repeated his repertoire of Milanese and Venetian landscapes, which have now become traditional and executed in a freer and smoother pictorial technique.
