Biography
Giovanni Fattori (1825-1908) was an Italian painter best known for his depictions of rural life and the landscapes of Tuscany. Born in Livorno, he was a founding member of the Macchiaioli, a group of Italian artists who rejected academic realism in favor of a more spontaneous and impressionistic style. Fattori's paintings are characterized by their loose brushstrokes, bold colors, and focus on light and atmosphere. His subjects often included peasants, soldiers, and animals, captured in their everyday activities, reflecting the changing social and economic landscape of 19th-century Italy.
