Non ce l'ho con la primavera
perché è tornata.
Non la incolpo
perché adempie come ogni anno
ai suoi doveri.
Marc Chagall | Fleurs de printemps, 1930

David's Gray signature style reveals a personal and contemporary expression of beauty and order which pays homage to the Classical Tradition in its craftsmanship.
Collectors of David's work often relate that his painting provoke a sense of peace, stillness, or a contemplative mood.
His award winning works have been covered by major art publications including Southwest Art, Art of the West, and American Art Collector.
Roberto Ferri, 1978 | Portrait of Pope Francis
Roberto Ferri devoted himself to Caravaggesque and academic painting - including Ingres, David, Gericault - but also by Surrealist painters.
Ferri's way of painting is elevated by a technique which is almost virtuosity, where the traditional tools of the surrealism are inserted onto the traditional iconographic elements.
His career took on greater notoriety for having been in charge of portraying Pope Francis.
There were two works commissioned from the Italian artist, which occupy privileged places in the Vatican.
Louis Janmot | Pittore simbolista
Louis Janmot (1814-1892) è stato un pittore e poeta Francese, appartenente alla Scuola di Lione, 1830 - un movimento ispirato alle correnti mistiche ed illuministe lionesi.
Louis Janmot è stato considerato una figura di transizione tra Romanticismo e Simbolismo, anticipando la componente francese della Confraternita dei Preraffaelliti; la sua opera fu ammirata da Puvis de Chavannes, Odilon Redon e Maurice Denis.

Jules Worms | The furtive message, 1877
In the "Furtive Message" Jules Worms (French academic painter, 1832-1924) re-creates a Spanish street as it might have appeared in the time of Goya.
The background is based on a watercolor sketch the artist made during an 1877 visit to Salamanca.
The picturesque setting forms a backdrop for a farce.
