compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Elisabeth Chaplin was the niece of French painter Charles Chaplin. In 1900 her family moved to Italy, because of her father's job, first to Piemonte and afterwards to the Italian Riviera. It was there, in Lagueglia, that Elisabeth started to teach herself to paint, with no formal training and only the advice of Albert Besnard. When the Chaplin family took up residence at the Villa Rossi in Florence in 1904, Elisabeth had the chance to visit Francesco Gioli's studio and meet Gio (showing 500 of 1560 characters). |
