Anselmo Bucci was an Italian painter and engraver associated with the Novecento Italiano group, known for a style that combines modern classicism and strong formal research. Born in Fossombrone and trained between Milan and Paris, Bucci developed a personal language that encompasses symbolism, impressionism, and lyrical realism. His works - oils, engravings, and illustrations - explore the human figure, urban landscape, and daily life, with particular attention to light and composition.
A versatile artist and experimenter, he participated in numerous national and international exhibitions, becoming a central figure in Italian art of the early 20th century. Today Anselmo Bucci is recognized as one of the protagonists of the Italian artistic renewal, with works present in important museums and collections.
