Tallone Cesare (Savona, 1853 - Milan, 1919) Cesare Tallone was an Italian painter of the 19th century. He attended the Brera Academy, where he met Previati, Spartaco, Vela, Gola, Segantini. In 1873 he became part of the "Artistic Family", which included exponents of the scapigliatura and other movements such as Cremona, Ranzoni, Grandi, Segantini, Longoni, Previati. In 1884 he exhibited four portraits in Brera, thus becoming the interpreter of the Milanese aristocracy and bourgeoisie. In 1889 he painted a portrait of Queen Margherita and in 1903 he won the Principe Umberto Prize. Tallone's portrait technique focused on a strong definition of the image, from the construction of the framework of the drawing to the modeling of the heads as if they were planed. His students were Carrà, Boccioni, Dudreville, Tosi, Bucci, Bonzagni.
