20 1/4" by 16 1/4" framed. Narizzarro was born in Quilmes in 1905 and died in 1986 after spending most of his life in Berazategui. He graduated in 1930 from the Cculo de Bellas Artes in the province of Buenos Aires. He perfected his skills in courses abroad; among them, the one held at the Ford Foundation in Hollywood stood out. An engraver, draftsman and painter, his works mainly represented local costumbrista scenes. He received numerous distinctions and was named an exemplary citizen. In 1942, he began teaching at the Ateneo Revisor, founded by Cristaler as Rigolleau, where he later became Director. There he taught courses on different artistic techniques for the workers and family members of the company using innovative pedagogical methods.
