"Woman with veil" oil on paper by Gino Parin. The painting is from the 20s / 30s of the twentieth century, has a beautiful coeval gilded wood frame. The picture and the frame need some cleaning. It comes from a private collection from Biella. Gino Parin was born in Trieste in 1876. His real name was Federico Gino Pollack. He began his artistic education in the studio of the Trieste painter Eugenio Scomparini and then continued at the Venetian Girolamo Navarra's one. At 19 he went to Munich to attend the Academy where he attended the courses of Karl Raupp and became acquainted with the painting of the Pre-Raphaelites, Lenbach, von Marées and von Stuck. Having become a member of the Münchener Künstler Genossenschaft, he often exhibited at the Glaspalast. He traveled extensively in Europe, visiting Switzerland, France and England. From 1910 he began to participate in the collective exhibitions of the Trieste Artistic Circle. Here he settled permanently at the outbreak of the First World War. He participated to the Biennials of 1921, 1924, 1928 and 1932. In 1923 he received the gold medal at the Turin Quadrennial. During this period his style, from the original German academic setting, evolved towards a personal reworking of the taste of the Deco years. His production, mainly focused on female portraits and interior painting, earned him the definition of "painter of beautiful women". Deported by the Germans in 1944, he died in the Bergen Belsen camp. Period: 1920s / 30s Measurements: In frame H 102 x W 82 x D 7.5 / Canvas H 79 x W 59 cm -

"The Matterhorn with the blue lake" oil on canvas from the early 1920s by Giovanni Battista Costa (Rapallo 1858 - Genoa 1838). The painting has been restored. Giovanni Battista Costa was born in Rapallo in 1858 in a wealthy family and dedicated his entire life to art. He participated, since 1879, in the exhibitions of the Promoting Society of Fine Arts in Genoa and in numerous other important Italian expositions, exhibiting, until 1921, over 100 paintings, mainly landscapes, seascapes and portraits. In 1895 he was appointed Academic of Merit of Ligustica, where he, too, teached. He began his artistic studies at the Ligustica Academy (and partly in Rome), soon going from a painting linked to tradition to the execution of works from life, probably under the guidance of Tammar Luxoro director, from 1874, of the new Landscape School. Consequently, the links with the Genoese Gray School, the Rivara School (in Piedmont) and the Tuscan Macchiaiolo movement appear to be close. The analysis of some of his works lead us to bring Costa closer to some Lombard painters of the 19th century: for example Carcano, especially for the softness of the colours. He takes part in numerous national exhibitions: awarded in 1897 in Venice, he participates in the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Turin in 1898; in 1906 we find it at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Milan; also worth mentioning is his participation in the first Quadrennial Exhibition in Turin in 1902. Giovanni Battista Costa was also a skilled portrait painter and painted in Venice, Parma, Viareggio, Ivrea, Engadina, Valle d’Aosta. Even though he was shy and solitary, he was part of two important schools: the Ligurian Artistic Family (1893 -1910 circa) and the Teatro Group (from 1908); refers to the upper room of the Caffè degli Amici of the Carlo Felice Theater. He is an artist particularly attentive to the social problems of the late nineteenth century. His works appear, in retrospect, in Genoa at the exhibition of Ligurian Painters of the Nineteenth Century (Palazzo Rosso, 1938) and at the Commemorative Exhibition at the San Matteo Gallery, 1952. In his maturity he turned his interest to the representation of mountain landscapes. In conclusion, we can identify three different ways of painting by Costa: the first is related to academic painting, a bit rigid (church interiors and portraiture); the second, realist, with warm colours and close to the themes of the Grays and Rivarians (affinity with Benedetto Musso).

"Sibilla Persica" oil on canvas, a work made between the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Large painting, of excellent quality, depicting the Persian Sibyl. Coeval frame, re-painted, the surface has no previous restorations, apart from small touches to be done, it is in excellent condition. The painting is a copy of the "Persian Sibyl" of 1647, preserved in the Capitoline Museums, in Rome, by Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, known as Guercino (1591-1666), one of the most important Italian painters of the 17th century. The Sibyl is a mythological figure present in both Greek and Roman culture. The classical tradition tells us that she was dealing with virgin women endowed with prophetic virtues, derived from the intercession of a divinity (which was usually Apollo); they were therefore able to provide responses or make predictions and were worshiped for this. The first historical reference to the Sibyls is found among the works of Plato where, however, he indicates only one. Varrone will be the first to provide a real list of these mythological figures among which the Persian Sibyl will also appear, the subject of this portrait, counted among the oldest. The classical tradition divided them into groups, based on their geographical origin: oriental, Greek-Ionic and Greek-Italic; the Persian Sibyl (or Persian) belonged to the eastern group. Period: Between the 18th and early 19th centuries Measurements: In frame H 145 x W 109 x D 4 / Canvas H 135 x L 98.5 cm
