Against the backdrop of the movement for the unification of Italy in the mid-19th century, a group of artists active in and around Florence began to develop a new approach to painting. These artists, who would later be called Macchiaioli, preferred the observation of contemporary reality and the admiration of nature and everyday life over classical and academic subjects. In this lecture, we will discover and get to know the members of the group, including Giovanni Fattori and Odoardo Borrani, who were active at the dawn of modernism in Italy.

The series | In each of the three lectures included in the new series, we will focus on a painting style or an artistic movement that emerged in a particular geographic region during the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. We will begin in 17th century Naples, and study artists who were inspired by the baroque artist Caravaggio; we will continue with the painters of the city of Venice, which was one of the main tourist destinations of the 18th century; and we will conclude our journey in Tuscany with a group of artists who worked during the dawn of modernism and in the spirit of the 19th century national awakening movement.
