Michela De Vito
Costume di Craco - Watercolor by M. De Vito - 1820 ca.

1820 c.a.

About the Item

Watercolor on ivory colored paper, 1820 c.a. Hand-titled "Costume di Craco" with a caption "Provincia di Basilicata nel Regno di Napoli" in black ink on lower margin at the center. Hand-signed on lower-right margin. Representing an Italian shepherd dressed in typical costumes. Very good conditions except for some stains and some ripples at the corners of the sheet. Very beautiful and good quality watercolor both for the drawing and for the fineness of the colors. Michela De Vito born in Abruzzi. She worked in Naples and became a famous artist during the XIX century. She was maybe the daughter or sister of Camillo de Vito, a famous painter of guaches above all of views and scenes of everyday life. Sometimes she was mistaken for Michele de Vito. This is how De Rosa and Trastulli describe her: “A refined painter, very skilled when it came to drawings, she had the characteristic to make her subject more gentle, compared to her male collegues".

Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago by an artist who has died requires a licence for export regardless of the work’s market price.
