ANTIQUE PAINTINGS
Since the dawn of its history, man has felt the need to preserve and transmit the most significant moments of his life, through universal languages understandable to all.
One of these languages is painting which has transformed over the centuries, going from a simple means of representing everyday life to an expression of one’s deepest feelings.
In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries a lively artistic ferment led many painters to experiment with new forms of representation, free from the previous constraints of academic painting.
From these experiences came an important and varied production of ancient paintings which has reached the present day with many testimonies on canvas, cardboard and tablet.
