Alessandro Pomi

Alessandro Pomi (1890-1976) was an Italian painter and decorator, born in Mestre on October 7, 1890 and died in Venice on March 27, 1976. 

He studied at the Academy Fine Paintings in Venice under the direction of Ettore Tito, devoting himself mainly to painting seascapes and landscapes, but also to the study of figures. 

Pomi participated in various exhibitions in Italy and abroad, including Pittsburgh, London, Buenos Aires, Munich, Milan, Venice and Treviso.

Notable pieces include the Pigeon Meal and the Portrait of a Man in Profile, which attest to his versatility in subjects. Alessandro Pomi's legacy endures through his contributions to 20th century Italian art, with works preserved in public and private collections.
