ANTONIO DEVITY (1901-1993) Original Oil on Canvas of a French Street Scene

This original oil on canvas by Italian painter Antonio DeVity (1901-1993) depicts an impressionistic French street scene lined on an overcast day, pedestrians punctuating the sidewalks and roadways as traditional architecture looms in the background. Born Umberto Marone, DeVity became one of the most important Neopolitan artists of the 1950s and 1960s, with his light impasto techniques adding beauty, depth, and dimension to his compositions. This painting is housed in a distressed gold frame and is signed by the artist in the lower right hand corner of the canvas with DeVity’s studio insignia stamped en verso.
