Emanuele BrugnoliEmanuele Brugnoli was born in Bologne, Italy, in 1859, and moved to Venice in 1912. He was an instructor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice and the founder of the school of etching. Brugnoli followed the vision of his friend, Fabio Mauroner, in recording the architecture and life of the Venetians in Venice. Both, offered a more panoramic view of the people in the squares and on the canals. These views were different than other artists such as Whistler, Roth, and Arms, who recorded Venice in a picturesque manner without the day-to-day activities of the people. Brugnoli is well known in Italy and Europe, but not in America, however a recent exhibit at the Italian Embassy in Washington, D.C, during March, 2011, was the first time showing the Venetian works of Emanuele Brugnoli. Fabio Mauroner, also included in the exhibit, had not shown in the United States for over 70 years.
