Marco Marcola, also known as Marcuola, was born in Verona in 1740. He was a versatile painter, with a vast production that spread mainly in the Veneto-Lombardy area. His art ranged from frescoes to the decoration of signs, furniture, sedan chairs and gondolas, but above all due to the demand for his popular genre paintings. He began his career decorating villas in the Verona area, his style was considered very similar to that of the Venetian Giandomenico Tiepolo. But in no document is there any reference to a possible acquaintance between the two Venetian painters. Precisely in the works of Tiepolo, also known for his Pulcinella and party scenes, numerous affinities can be found. Marcola's favorite subject is a scene full of characters, both male and female, in carnival clothes, depicted in a joyful and festive attitude. Marco Marcola died in 1793.
