      Antonio DeVity (1901-1993)

      Antonio De Vity was born in Reggio-Calbria in southern Italy. He lived in Naples and later moved to Rome where he was taught by Giacomo Balla, creator of futurism. He also lived and worked in Paris where he studied under Antoine Blanchard. He opened an art studio in Naples in 1950 which also became a meeting place for Neapolitan artists. He had Exhibitions in Brussels, Marrakesh, Madrid, Paris and other cities. DeVity sold his works for many years. His grandmother was originally from Paris. DeVity loved Paris and many of his popular scenes are of the Moulin Rouge, Notre Dame and le Cafe de la Paix. Antonio was educated at the Naples Art Lyceum and L'ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris.
      DeVity's works have won international awards and he is recognized for his bright colors and impressionist treatment of the streets and waterways of Paris and Venice.

      Those are the Spanish Steps in Rome.

      In his rendition, the steps don't appear to go anywhere. Like they just go up in the air with no purpose. Spare me from becoming an art critic, but, I see what I see.

      But what you don't see doesn't mean it's not there.

      Sorry Gil, but there is something off to me in his depth perception or something. I can see where it would be a hard thing to paint for the same reasons.

      There are a lot of De Vity fake out there; he had enthusiastic followers. It has the atelier stamp on the back so likely all good. Just an FYI when relying on the signature alone.
