As a child he lived in Grenoble and Lyon, where he attended the Academy of Fine Arts for ten years and came into contact with the painters Guiscard and Monticelli. From 1870 to 1879 Cavalli travelled to France and exhibited two portraits at the Paris Salon in 1880. He worked with his father Carlo Giuseppe, who was a teacher at the Rossetti Valentini School of Fine Arts, until 1892. When his father died, Enrico left for France with Fornara and Peretti, alternating returns to his homeland. In 1917 he took over as director of the Rossetti Valentini School of Fine Arts, which he carried on until his death.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-128cadc\" data-id=\"128cadc\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9afca2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b9afca2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Lorenzo Peretti jr<\/h1>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6dd14f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d6dd14f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">(1871-1953)<\/h1>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93165b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"93165b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\">Lorenzo Peretti Jr (1871-1953) was the last artist in the Peretti family, and thanks to the wealthy position of his father Bernardino and grandfather Lorenzo, he was able to attend boarding school in Bern and to work in Milan.

In 1895-1896 he was in Lyon with Fornara, and the following year he exhibited <i>Il filo spezzato<\/i> at the Brera Triennale, a work that brought him great success and national attention. Intimism and lyricism were the fundamental traits of his work, which he expressed in all fields from paintings to frescoes, and from portraits to etchings.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3096cd0 elementor-reverse-tablet elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3096cd0\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fb1cb35\" data-id=\"fb1cb35\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cc6f7c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cc6f7c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Carlo Fornara<\/h1>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d74c87c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d74c87c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">(1871-1968)<\/h1>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb206b7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bb206b7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\">Carlo Fornara (1871-1968) quickly grew interested in drawing at the Rossetti Valentini School of Fine Arts with Enrico Cavalli as his teacher. In 1891 he took part in the First Brera Triennale with <i>La bottega del calderaio<\/i> and <i>Ricordanze<\/i>, which marked the official debut of divisionism in Italy. A few years later he left for the first in a long series of stays in France with Enrico Cavalli and Lorenzo Peretti Jr.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>By 1899 Fornara was no longer unknown. His success had led to his friendship with Segantini, who invited him to collaborate on a piece that would appear at the 1900 Paris Exposition, and who recommended him to Alberto Grubicy. The connection between Fornara and Segantini can be seen in his works: Fornara moved towards symbolism and adopted the typical, long Segantini brushstroke.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-445ee76 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile\" data-id=\"445ee76\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home The seven masters of Vigezzo painting Enrico Cavalli (1848-1919) Enrico Cavalli (1848-1919) was born in Santa Maria Maggiore.
