Oil on faesite. Born in Milan in 1913, and trained at the Academy of Brera (which later became a teacher), Adriano Gajoni was passionate about the study of seventeenth-century Lombard painters and the Dutch and Flemish painting of the seventeenth century, from whose meticulous realism he was inspired. Of strict figurative observance, Il Gajoni preferred landscapes, portraits and especially still lifes, which he expressed in fairy-tale and allegorical compositions. He practiced above all the oil painting on wood and faesite. Also this painting proposes a landscape of ancient taste: in the countryside, on the path that skirts a wide river, a shepherd figure rides on his donkey, followed by his small herd. The work is presented in a frame in style. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
