Paintings by Guttuso & Contemporary Italian Artists
The renowned Italian artist, Renato Guttuso
(1912-1987), created masterpieces in the course of
his career. His pleasantly varied works are among
the realist creations of the 20th century. Many of
them are the epic depiction of the common
people's heart-rendering life. In this series, he
achieved his neo-Baroque style of painting through
which he realistically portrayed human life in the
course of Italy's socio-political upheavels.
