Luigi LucioniLucioni was born, 1900, in Malnate, Italy, a small town in the Alps near the border of Switzerland. He immigrated to the United States in 1911,
and eventually studied etching with William Auerbach Levy at the National Academy of Art. While painting in Vermont, Lucioni purchased a
farm house near Manchester, and converted the barn into his studio, where he spent his summers, only returning to New York for the winters.
The Vermont landscape captivated the artist with its barns, silos, and trees, which he portrays with respect and admiration in his paintings and
etchings. Besides being a distinguished artist, Lucioni, was also a student and lover of the opera.
