Biography
Gerolamo Induno (1827-1890) was an Italian painter known for his historical and genre scenes. Born in Milan, he studied at the Brera Academy and later became a professor there. Induno's early works were influenced by the Romantic movement, but he later shifted towards Realism. He was particularly interested in depicting the struggles of ordinary people, and his paintings often featured scenes of poverty and social injustice. Induno's most famous work is "The Siege of Rome" (1870), which depicts the Italian army's capture of the city during the Risorgimento. He also painted portraits and landscapes, but it was his historical and genre scenes that earned him critical acclaim. Induno was a member of the Academy of Fine Arts in Milan and received numerous awards and honors during his lifetime. His works can be found in museums and private collections throughout Italy and Europe.
