• Ippolito Umberto BIRAGHI
• (1913-1981)

Italian painter born in Milan in 1913 and after completing primary and secondary school, trained there as an advertising and poster designer. Restless by nature and with a fiery sensibility, he eventually stops advertising work and focuses on painting. He develops an apparently easy and spontaneous technique and brushwork, with colors that are almost obscured by an underlying sadness. His work stands out for the topicality of the thematic conception and for the effectiveness of its realization, revealing more and more intensely the struggle that flares up in his soul between the supreme beauty of art and the irrepressible need to live.
