Angelo RIBOSSI (1822-1886), Italian, The Blue Dress, Signed. OIl on Canvas.

Very high quality oil painting. This Italian master painted in Milan and exhibited in the mid-1800's. He painted mostly religious scenes and portraits and here he has made an absolutely stunning portrait. The depth of detail goes far beyond most portraits and is almost 3D in effect. The fabric of the dress is rich in colour and fine in detail. The rose is alive with reality, it looks freshly cut. The hands are the place where many good artists just can't seem to make them life like but Ribossi has captured the finest of lines and correct size then gives them tone and depth with his colorization. Note the gleam in her earring and fine detail quality of her closed fan held in her hand. Every where one looks in this painting you see the obvious quality of the artists finest work.
