Alceste Campriani
Alceste Campriani (11 February 1848 – 1933) was an Italian painter noted for his landscapes, especially of the Neapolitan countryside. Life and career He was born in Terni from a noble family. His father's political attachment to the cause of Italy prompted his arrest by Papal officers. This led to economic difficulties for the Campriani family. He was enrolled in the Naples Institute of Fine arts, but he proved recalcitrant to academic discipline, and abandoned the institute to paint on his own. After a few years of near destitution, he was about to abandon an artistic career altogether, when he garnered a prize for composition awarded by the institute. He befriended Giuseppe De Nittis, who introduced him to the Goupil Gallery, who went on to market over one hundred of his works to England, France, Belgium, and the Americas. During the early 1860s, he joined the group of artists known as the School of Resina (or in Italy known as the ''Republica di Portici''), founded by Marco ...
