Pietro Ghizzardi

Described in the review as a great naive painter: an uneducated, almost illiterate man who painted chimeric women (often on farm walls and yellow paper) with a bold charcoal stroke; his work was exhibited in Ravenna and a book titled "Mi richordo anchora" is associated with him.

Painted chimeric women on farm walls and yellow paper; bold charcoal strokes; exhibited in Ravenna (as mentioned in the review); associated with the book "Mi richordo anchora, memorie di una vita dolorosa e meraviglioza".
