Biography

He was born in Pollone in the province of Biella, Piedmont. He was a pupil of Enrico Gamba[1] and Carlo Arienti at the Albertina Academy in Turin, Delleani worked initially in the field of history painting and received various marks of official recognition. He exhibited work at the Paris Salon of 1874 and gradually modernised his means of expression and range of subjects at the end of the decade with a new focus on landscape and painting from life. The early 1880s saw an exclusive focus on painting en plein air, capturing light in thick strokes of colour. His most frequent subjects were views of the Piedmontese and Lombard countryside in changing conditions of light and season. The artist’s presentation of some 40 works at the Venice Biennale in 1905 and participation in the International Exhibition in Munich of the same year set the seal on his international success. He died in Turin. Among his pupils were Giuseppe Bozzalla[2] and Giuseppe Buscaglione.

He collaborated in painting with his brother, Celestino Delleani (1850-1873), who died young.[3]

gollark: Now, I hackerized your timetable with my 1337 sk1llz, and you have maths - probably not much ability to do work there - physics, during which you may be able to do some depending on whether Dr Houchin does anything, more maths, lunch, which is actually very long for you so you do in fact have a while, and then also maths, then computer science, which is when it's due.
gollark: You can just work on it during lessons.
