Massimo Campigli created this bright and brilliant lithograph in 1965. The subject of the composition that is also the title of the work is “La Camera gialla” (“The Yellow Room). Multicolored frames inscribed in the room encircle a central figure that becomes the heart of the scene. Massimo Campigli (Berlin, 1895 - Saint-Tropez, 1971) was an Italian painter. In 1921, he participated in the Salon d'Automne with the painting ''L'arrotino''. In 1922, Leonce Rosenberg, a famous Parisian merchant and dealer, bought some artworks of the artist. In 1926, Campigli exhibited at the ''First exhibition of Novecento'' in Milan. In 1927, he could live with his paintings: he exhibited in Paris, Zurich, Dresda and Amsterdam. He took inspiration from Etruscan art for his artworks. In 1961, an important monograph was published in Paris, its name was ''Les idoles de Campigli'' by Andrè Chastel; some years later he was appointed Academician of San Luca. Campigli served as a foreign correspondent in Paris in 1919 before joining the “Paris Italians” artist group that also included the artists Gino Severini and Giorgio de Chirico. See less
