Umberto Ongania
Italian, 1867 - 1942
watercolors and oils. He exhibited in 1887 at Venice, La Porta della Carta, and in 1888 at Bologna, Il
Palazzo Ducale di Venezia. He continued to paint until the first decades of the twentieth century. He lent
several illustrations to be used in the monumental picture book on the Basilica San Marco. These two
works are a bit out of the cope of our collection focus however I think they could be used in maritime
based exhibitions, or shows about Europe. The style is typical of Italian painting of the era.
