Lorenzo Delleani

Lorenzo Delleani (17 January 1840, Pollone – 13 November 1908, Turin) was an Italian painter, known primarily for landscapes and genre scenes.

He was the third son of Agostino Delleani, a member of the Royal Corps of Civil Engineering, and his wife, Maddalena née Billotti.

From the beginning of the 1880s, he gradually abandoned academic Romanticism, modernizing his means of expression and range of subjects with a new focus on landscapes and painting from life.

[1] In 1899, he participated in the III Esposizione internazionale d'arte [it] in Venice, accompanied by his pupil and patron, Countess Sofia Cacherano di Bricherasio [it].

In 1905, he presented forty works at the Venice Biennale and, later that same year, participated in the Ninth International Art Exhibition in Munich.
