Giuseppe De Nittis (February 25, 1846 – August 12, 1884), born in Barletta, was an Italian painter whose art combined the styles of Impressionism and Salon art. His teacher was Giovanni Battista Calò. In 1863 he was expelled from the Instituto di Belle Arti, Naples. After that, he started his career with the exhibition of two paintings at the 1864 Neapolitan Promotrice. He became friends with a group of artists, the Macchiaioli, and befriended Telemaco Signorini. He was also exhibiting on Florence. Learn more »
