NOTICE
Giuseppe De Nittis, an Italian artist of the XIXᵉ century, is an important figure in the Impressionist movement, renowned for his luminous, atmospheric works that capture the modernity of urban life and landscapes. Born in Italy but having spent much of his career in France, De Nittis was influenced by French Impressionism and joined the circle of painters such as Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, and his compatriots Giovanni Boldini and Federico Zandomeneghi.
De Nittis's works are distinguished by a sensitivity to light and atmospheric conditions, which he expresses with delicate brushstrokes and subtle colors. He is particularly renowned for his scenes of Parisian life, from elegant strolls along the Champs-Élysées to sunny landscapes of the French countryside and Italy. In his paintings, De Nittis manages to capture the immediacy of the moment, offering a poetic and elegant vision of everyday life.
A master at depicting the effects of light and climatic variations, De Nittis's technique is close to that of the Impressionists, while retaining an Italian finesse and attention to detail. His works, such as Le Quai du Louvre and Place de la Concorde, are prized today for their elegance and unique vision of modern life, making Giuseppe De Nittis a key figure of European Impressionism.
