Onorato Carlandi

At eighteen, he briefly served as a volunteer with the Cacciatori delle Alpi of Giuseppe Garibaldi.

In 1875, he was one of the co-founders of the Società degli Acquerellisti romani [it] (watercolorists), together with Ettore Roesler Franz, Pio Joris and Cesare Biseo.

When he returned to Rome, he participated in the activities of the artists' association, "In arte libertas [it]".

When this group dissolved, he and several others created "XXV della campagna romana [it]", a society devoted to plein aire painting and informal socializing.
