Dlouhy is a Czech-Armenian artist who studied under the close tutelage of renowned Italian artist Manlio Guberti. Guberti was mainly known for his Cezanne-esque landscapes, and Dlouhy’s work echoes these sensibilities, most notably in the cubist compartmentalism of light. Here we see this methodology in her two depictions of the Duomo in Florence, etched from life (Guberti’s primary studio was nestled in the hills of Tuscany, and so field trips to Florence were frequent).
