A whimsical oil painting depicting a Cafe scene with figures in Venice during spring by Luigi Cagliani. As an Italian Impressionist artist, most of Cagliani's works were produced in the first half of the 20th Century. He was known for his charming compositions and settled in Lombardy, which helps explain his passion for intimate Parisian style paintings. He also favored painting scenes set of Venice. This piece is a wonderful display of figures going about their day in a wonderful town with a boat in the water under the bridge. The colors and lighting of this piece is truly a joy to discover, as we can feel the moment in time set beautifully. The details are soft and elegant as the shadows pick up specks of light throughout the pathway. This painting is signed by the artist lower right and it comes housed in a beautiful gold tone wood frame with velvet liner and ready to be displayed with hanging wire on verso.

Condition: With ordinary wear from age, otherwise, this painting and its frame are in very good to excellent condition for the time period (please refer to the listing pictures for details).
