Claudio Simonetti


Simonetti was born in Rome, January 29, 1929, into a well known family of accomplished artists. From his father he inherited his love for art and his great taste for colors. 

He began his studies at the Rime School of Art, where he quickly won his professor's recognition and praise. After these studies, he traveled extensively throughout Italy and France, where he painted from nature and learned from his associations with other artists in all the important Art Centers.  He still paints and exhibits regularly in Rome, Venice, Naples, Milan and Paris.

His works today express the unique maturity of his talent. Though he seeks out new expressions in art, Simonetti's art always sticks to the fundamentals of painting exquisite drawing, composition and color. 

His landscapes of the Italian countryside, his marine paintings of coastal village and the scenes of the canals of Venice, appeal to everyone because of the well balanced technique and the sense of the poetry that pervades each painting. 

Today his works are in private collections worldwide.
