Nicolas De Corsi - " borgo marinaro nel golfo di napoli"
The son of a Russian diplomat, Nicolas De Corsi (Odessa 1885-Torre del Greco 1956) stood out in the circle of Neapolitan painters of the early twentieth century, emulators of the flourishing ‘School of Posillipo’. De Corsi was an instinctive painter, with a lively palette and bright colours. This oil on panel depicts a glimpse of the Gulf of Naples on a sunny day, a lively picturesque village and the calm and quiet Vesuvius in the background.
