Alberto Pisa was an Italian painter who painted landscapes and garden views in watercolour. He was born in Ferrara, Italy, a city famous for its Renaissance buildings. His family was a wealthy merchant family who ran an import trade. Alberto had two brothers who later joined the family business. Alberto had no interest in this. He devoted himself to his creative talents. He wanted to follow his artistic inclination and develop his talent to be able to work as a painter later. Already as a teenager he therefore took art lessons with Gaetano Domenichini, an Italian watercolour painter, who paved the way for him to study art. Finally he moved to Florence to study at the art academy.
In Florence he makes the acquaintance of members of the Macchiaioli group. The Macchiaioli are an association of Italian artists who, from 1855 to 1865, fought against academism and for realism. During a trip to Paris he became acquainted with the creative innovations of Impressionism. This style was also founded from a movement. The depiction of fleeting snapshots strongly influenced Alberto Pisa's development in the following years. After his studies, the painter moved to London. From then on he commuted between his home country Italy and the British capital. He took part in the Venice Biennale several times and also visited other art exhibitions very regularly. In London he soon made a name for himself with his paintings, when he depicted the London city life on large canvases. His art, was characterized by a fast but delicate brush stroke. In 1889 he organized his first solo exhibition. He rented suitable rooms in one of the best shopping streets of the city and showed his art. His paintings became more and more famous and so it happened that he received new, lucrative offers. In addition, he worked as an illustrator for a travel book publisher, who appreciated his landscape paintings very much. His success did not remain hidden even from the directors of the Royal Academy. He took part in exhibitions.
In 1921 he returned to his home country. In his former student city Florence he found a new home. He extended his collection of paintings with Florentine and Tuscan views. He presented these and other of his works together with well-known Italian colleagues at an exhibition in the premises of the Society of Fine Arts in Florence. Shortly afterwards he received the silver medal, an important award in Italy. At the Ferrara Art Exhibition, he was awarded another prestigious prize. Alberto Pisa died in Florence in 1936. His birthplace Ferrara posthumously named a street after him.
