Joachim-Raphaël Boronali

Joachim-Raphaël Boronali was a fictitious Italian painter created as an invention of writer and critic Roland Dorgelès who created paintings on canvas by tying a paintbrush to the tail of a donkey named Lolo.

[1] A painting by the donkey, Et le soleil s'endormit sur l'Adriatique (Sunset Over the Adriatic) was exhibited at the 1910 Salon des Indépendants attributed to the 'excessivist' Genoan painter.

The painting sold for 400 francs (~ $1400 in 2024 value) and was donated by Dorgelès to the Orphelinat des Arts.

[2] The painting forms part of the permanent collection at l'Espace culturel Paul Bédu (Milly-la-Forêt).
