Pietro Mengarini (1869-1924): an “apostle of luminism” in Rome at the beginning of the century
ENTER THE VEWING ROOM
An aristocratic and sought-after painter, Mengarini was one of the protagonists of the Divisionist season and of the Roman Secession. Distinguished by a pointillism close to the manner of Pellizza da Volpedo, his style is recognized for its clear luminism and a hint of magic that enchants the observer.
