Antonio Iannicelli

Antonio Iannicelli was born in Naples in 1952 and now lives and works in Castelvolturno.

As a boy he showed a great inclination for painting and he cultivated it with a simple affection, taking the heaven, the sea and the local people as his inspiration. With that he has become one of Europe’s foremost landscape artists.

He has staged many personal exhibitions both in Italy and abroad and his work is always featured in the highest Italian art expos.

For many years he has enjoyed wide popularity throughout the UK and the rest of Europe and is a favourite artistic import in the United States of America.

Iannicelli paints almost exclusively the Italian landscape that he so loves. Where his work excels and enthralls collectors above all are in his Venetian works and coastal scenes of Campania on the Neapolitan Riviera, with the beautiful islands of Ischia and Capri.

His work captures the tranquillity of the coastal landscapes, where the cloudless sky meets the horizon of the endless azure Mediterranean.

He manages to render unusual aspects with expressive immediateness.

The fluency and enthusiasm in his work is at once apparent, while the intimacy on display is of a well rounded artisan.
