Luigi Boscolo

His teacher Antonio Bernati,[1][4][8] architect, painter, engraver, helped him to obtain a scholarship to study at the Accademia di Belle Arti of Venice.

[4] Among his engravings are those of The Bathers by Francesco Hayez, the Magdalen by Natale Schiavoni, works given an award by the Academy of Fine Arts of Milan; The Odalisque also by Schiavoni; a portrait of Carlo Goldoni by Alessandro Longhi, engravings awarded by the Academy of Belle Arti in Venice; the Madonna del Pomo by Giovanni Bellini; a portrait of Malatesta Buglioni by the painter Raffaele Giannetti of Genoa; La Sorpresa del Bechi di Firenze; Torquato Tasso at the Hospital[10] Sant'Anna in Ferrara, and the Poet Camoens or better Camões in prison by the painter Luigi Moretti of Venice; and finally five portraits of King Vittorio Emanuele, King Umberto, of Cardinal Silvestri of Rovigo, Conte Spiridione Papadopoli of Venice, and Conte Luigi Camerini of Padua.

[11] Traniello and Stocco listed 43 works (subject, if after, where, year, numbers) after the exhibition dedicated to Luigi Boscolo in Rovigo in October 1969.

[4][1] Though he wasn't a rich man, he gave up the opportunity to work at the Bank of Italy to keep his artistic freedom.

[4] In 1917, after the Battle of Caporetto - World War I, his most important works were sent from Rovigo to Palazzo Venezia in Rome for safety reasons.
