SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Ruggero Panerai (1862–1923), born in Florence and deceased in Paris, was an Italian painter trained at Florence’s Academy of Fine Arts and subsequently with Giovanni Fattori. His teacher directed his interest towards Maremma landscapes, horses, peasants and military life. He continued the legacy of the Macchiaioli while adapting it to late nineteenth-century Naturalism.
His paintings alternate rural scenes with lively views of Florence and subjects drawn from harbour life. In 1887, Il guado was exhibited in Venice, while Il cavallo malato drew attention to his animal painting. The latter work, held by the Gallery of Modern Art at Palazzo Pitti, shows cattle herders beside a fallen horse. Observation of gestures and relationships between people and animals structures his work.
