DESCRIPTION OF THE ARTWORKS This pair of oil paintings on canvas, created by the painter Eugenio Scorzelli in the 1930s , depicts two evocative views of Venice, interpreted in a distinctly Impressionist style , intimate and lyrical, characteristic of the artist’s mature production. The first painting portrays a gondola gliding silently across the lagoon, with the city visible in the background. The composition is built on a delicate chromatic balance that highlights the shimmering reflections on the water: the gondola, rendered with dark, concise brushstrokes, emerges from the iridescent surface, while the figures are only lightly suggested. The palette is dominated by warm, muted tones of browns, greys, and powdery blues, creating a suspended, melancholic, and deeply Venetian atmosphere, where time itself seems to slow down. The second painting depicts a view of Piazza San Marco seen from the water , with the basin occupying the foreground and the iconic architecture of the square in the background. Here again, Scorzelli favors an Impressionist rendering, entrusting free and vibrant brushwork with the task of evoking volumes, light, and perspective. The architectural forms are not described in detail but emerge through light color fields and layered tones, while the water reflects shapes and colors in a beautiful, dynamic interplay of movement and light. Both paintings are small in format , a feature that enhances their character as painted studies from life, likely executed during one of the artist’s stays in Venice. The works are signed at the lower right and retain their original period frames in brunished gold-painted wood , sober and elegant, perfectly in harmony with the taste of the time and the delicacy of the compositions. Taken together, these two canvases form a refined testament to Scorzelli’s Impressionist sensitivity in the 1930s , capable of capturing the most authentic and poetic soul of Venice through light, atmosphere, and chromatic vibration.

Subject: Venetian landscape – Venice Lagoon with gondola – Venetian seascape – Piazza San Marco in Venice – Gondolas in the San Marco harbor Category: Italian classical and modern art – Original 20th-century Post-Impressionist art THE ARTIST Eugenio Scorzelli (Buenos Aires 1890 – Naples 1958) was an Italian painter active in the early 20th century. He trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples , where he studied under masters such as Michele Cammarano, Domenico Morelli, and Filippo Palizzi . Born in Buenos Aires under the name Arturo to Italian parents, he moved to Italy at a young age and adopted the name “Eugenio” out of gratitude to an uncle who supported him during the difficult years of his youth. His career spanned more than four decades. He began exhibiting in Naples and took part in major Italian art exhibitions, including the Venice Biennale during the 1920s and 1930s. Scorzelli was an eclectic artist who painted landscapes, urban views, scenes of daily life, portraits, and seascapes , blending the Neapolitan tradition with influences from European—particularly French—painting, absorbed during his stays in Paris and London . His painting is distinguished by a poetic and luminous sensitivity , a palette attentive to light and atmosphere, and a brushwork capable of capturing the essence of the subject without unnecessary detail. His works are held in public and private collections in Italy and abroad and are regularly featured in auctions and specialized exhibitions.
