Vincenzo Cabianca (1827–1902), born in Verona and deceased in Rome, participated in the investigations of the Macchiaioli. Following studies in Venice and a stay in Milan, he settled in Florence in 1853. His relationships with Telemaco Signorini, Odoardo Borrani and Cristiano Banti encouraged a painting practice attentive to contrasts of light and direct observation. He moved to Rome in 1870, where watercolour became important to his work.
The Volunteer’s Farewell (1858), at Livorno's Museo Fattori, places a patriotic subject within a family interior, using light to emphasise faces at the moment of departure. In Study of a Woman at Montemurlo, around 1862, held by Rome's National Gallery, white and ochre clothing stands against a green background. Colour constructs the figure while preserving the simplicity of the everyday subject.
