For some reason I can't quite figure, I love painters whose work combines great technical skill with frequently misunderstood perspective, lapses in drawing, wildly variable degrees of verisimilitude, etc. I've only recently "discovered" Giuseppe Tominz, but I find his paintings very interesting, and I think he's a very good example of those charmingly inconsistent artists whose work I find so fascinating.

| Valentino Valle and his daughter, between 1825 and 1828. |
 |
| Three Ladies of the Moscon Family, 1829. As with the Mona Lisa, the two halves of the background landscape fail to line up. |

It's difficult not to be fascinated by these paintings. I am particularly fond of paintings with visible corrections.
ReplyDeleteAgreed -so fabulous! It somehow seems so modern - early cubism or something approaching it! It's the best of both worlds -the polished with the naive.
