In the series of the "Four Seasons", commissioned to Pasquale Celommi by the Commander Pasquale Ventilj, the pastoral world is reproposed through rustic "types” who reveal themselves rather self-conscious if compared to the more dramatic scenes of the same country artist Teofilo Patini.
The Four Seasons are part of the collection of the The Pinacoteca Civica of Teramo.
Pasquale Celommi | Winter / Inverno, 1890-1900 | Pinacoteca di Teramo
The Pinacoteca Civica of Teramo is the propelling centre of the Polo Museale Città di Teramo.
Twentieth-century art, in Teramo as elsewhere in Italy, is animated by the attempt to overcome localism in order to confront the most inventive experiences of the time.
In the third room, the works of Guido Montauti, Giovanni Melarangelo, and Venanzo Crocetti highlight the up-to-date skills of local artists appreciated nationally and internationally.
Pasquale Celommi (1851-1928) was an Italian painter, known for his outdoor scenes of Italian life. Celommi was born in Montepagano, Italy in 1851 into a family of fishermen.
Celommi was very skilled at depicting the bright sun of Italy and has been referred to as "The Painter of Light".
Celommi often painted women and children playing on beaches or in the sea.

Nella serie delle Quattro stagioni, commissionata a Pasquale Celommi (1851-1928) dal commendator Pasquale Ventilj, torna il mondo pastorale, riproposto attraverso “tipi” contadineschi, che si rivelano, tuttavia, piuttosto manierati se confrontati con le scene più drammatiche del conterraneo Teofilo Patini.
