Carlo Canella (Verona 1800 - Milan 1879) Painting Wedding: 74x54cm Frame: 102x82cm Signed lower left Painting Landscape with River: 71x56cm Frame: 99.5 x 85cm Unsigned Carlo Canella was born on April 6, 1800, in Verona. Encouraged to paint by his older brother Giuseppe, he studied at the Verona Academy, making his debut in 1829 at the Milan Exhibition with a Portrait. In the Album of the Exhibition of Fine Arts of 1837, he was judged as follows: "Although he did not have all the inventive flair of his brother Giuseppe, he knows how to conduct his genre paintings of views with much study of truth and splendor of color." Numerous works also appeared in the context of Veronese exhibitions. The portrait of Canella in his studio, erroneously qualified by biographers and catalogers of the time as a self-portrait of Giuseppe, and a work belonging to the Marquis Zanoletti representing a kitchen interior with a scene of memory including the painting depicting the interior of the Cathedral of Milan in which he signs himself "Canella minore" are to be remembered as his works and that the Castelvecchio Museum of Verona was about to purchase from the owner Emma Wollisch of Vienna. He died in Milan in 1879.
