daniele ranzoni (1843 - 1889)
Daniele Giovanni Ranzoni was an Italian Impressionist painter of the second half of the 19th century.
Ranzoni very early showed a talent for drawing and, in addition to private lessons, studied at the Brera Academy, the Albertina Academy in Turin and the Giuseppe Bertini School of Nudes. In the mid-19th century, he co-founded the artistic and literary group Scapigliato, considered the first avant-garde in Italian art.
A turning point in Ranzoni's artistic career was his acquaintance with the Princes Trubetskys, at whose villa he settled in 1873. He was engaged in the education of the little princes Pierre, Paolo and Gigi, at the same time creating his works and participating in the social life of his patrons. This period was a very fruitful one for the artist. After a few years, Ranzoni moved to England, where he became the most sought-after portraitist among the English nobility. Daniele Ranzoni made a significant contribution to the development of Lombard painting in the portrait genre.
