Ernesto Fontana Biography

Ernesto Fontana (Milan, 1837- Milan, 1918) He enrolled at Brera, a pupil of Hayez and Bertini. His study companions were Tranquillo Cremona, Daniele Ranzoni, Filippo Carcano, Moses Bianchi (with whom he shared his studies for some time). He began his career by painting historical paintings: "The meeting between Elizabeth and Mary Stuart" contributed to giving him great fame. Among other things, he won a gold medal at the Ferrara Exhibition in 1875. Fontana, however, was more at ease in genre painting, close in taste, and also linked by friendship, to the Induno brothers, the true founders of painting anecdotal. In fact, there are countless genre canvases that Fontana painted.
