Luigi Zuccoli
Luigi Zuccoli was a 19th century Italian painter.
Luigi Zuccoli began his creative journey at the Milan Academy under the tutelage of Pelagio Palaggi. In 1855, at a prestigious exhibition organised by the Imperial Academy of Arts, Zuccoli presented his magnificent work The First Christian Martyrs.
The artist's works spoke of everyday life, depicting complex genre scenes and sketches of Italian everyday life. His skill transcended borders, winning the hearts of people far beyond his native country. Zuccoli travelled extensively throughout England and Belgium in search of inspiration, and from time to time exhibited at the Royal Academy in London.
