Born in Milan and trained at the Brera Academy as a pupil of di Alciati, Angelo Del Bon made his debut in Monza in 1924 at the female portrait exhibition. In 1926 he participated in the second exhibition of the Italian twentieth century, but he immediately departed from this movement and its heaviness and static nature, seeking rather a greater lightness of hues and shifting interest from form to color, to arrive at an essentially chromatic definition of the picture. , also on the suggestions of post-impressionism. From 1930, the year in which he was again present at the Venice Biennale, the dialogue with nature and the clear description of the Lombard landscape began, aiming for a clearer and brighter definition of the surrounding space. Starting from 1932, he reached a total zeroing of the surface values, introducing large patches of white and defining his own peculiar technique, which involved applying a consistent layer of zinc white to the canvas, subsequently proceeding with pure color mixtures. and scrapings to let the preparation emerge from the bottom. Del Bon obtained works of absolute clarity and brightness, accentuated by the use of pastel colors, which characterized his paintings from 1933 onwards. He mainly painted Lombard landscapes; from 1941 he began the series of still lifes and flowers. In 1940 he set up the Annunciata gallery with his friend Grossetti, to which Del Bon exclusively gave all his production. The work is presented in a style frame.
