Tito Pellicciotti (1871-1950) – The Shoemaker – Oil On Panel

Interesting oil painting on panel by the Italian painter Tito Pellicciotti (1871-1950), depicting a shoemaker at work in his workshop.This scene of everyday popular life is rendered with great attention to detail: the craftsman’s worn clothing, the shoes, the tools scattered across the floor and the numerous objects arranged on the table all contribute to creating a lively interior rich in atmosphere.The figure of the shoemaker is particularly well executed, captured in a moment of concentration while at work, reflecting the genre painting and scenes of popular life that form a characteristic part of Pellicciotti’s work.Signed lower left “T.
