ResumoLIONELLO VENTURI, whose wide knowledge of all Italian art has sharpened his perceptions and deepened his appreciation, has written in Dedalo with great sensitiveness and sympathy of Felice Casorati. A study of the painting, Lo Studio, led him to question whether the archaism apparent in the work was not a converging of all the impressions of reality toward a principle of style, and he noted particularly in the artist and his work the antitheses or archaism and modernity, of realism and of abstraction. To state the fact that he welds these diverse tendencies, and that he is capable of the convergence and order which result in a unified style, is tribute sufficient to Casorati.
