Antonio Calderara is born in 1903 in Abbiategrasso (Italy). He studies engineer, soon after he stops studying this field in 1925 to devote exclusively to painting. His first true personal exhibition is organized in 1929. Calderara is a self-educated artist. In his first years of creation, the artist works in an impressionist style: landscapes, dead natures near to the meditative style of Morandi, . . .

See & discover

Beyond works currently in stock, it seemed to me useful to combine business with pleasure by letting you discover others works by artists in my gallery. These artworks, now sold or removed from our website, have been in our stock in the past. These pages will undoubtedly make it possible for some of you to associate an image with its title or the other way round, for others it will be a good time to discover more on such and such artist. For the sake of confidentiality – the pieces being no longer available – we won't display neither their numbering or their price. For whatever reason, make sure to visit this amazing art database with to date 6441 online works just for your pleasure! Michelle Champetier
