Pietro Annigoni (Milan, 1910- Florence, 1988) In 1925 he moved with his family to Florence, where he attended the Accademia di Belle Arti. In 1930 he exhibited his works for the first time in a group show and in 1932 he held his first solo exhibition. Four years later he also exhibited in Milan, gaining widespread acclaim. Specialising in portraiture, he painted faces of important personalities, including Elizabeth II, Pope John XXIII and John Fitzgerald Kennedy. He also painted portraits of ordinary people, works of rare intensity, united by an interest in psychological introspection. Between 1966 and 1988 he encountered his period of greatest fame and during these years he exhibited numerous times at the Royal Academy in London and in Italy between Florence and Milan. His production also includes important sacred subjects, which he realised for famous Italian basilicas
