Biography

Armando Barabino studied in Genova and Venice. His father Nicolò Barabino (1832-1891) was one of the greatest Italian painters of the 19th century. Armando himself painted mostly pastel watercolors of landscapes, portraits and still lifes, but was also well known as an outstanding sculptor (crystals and ceramics). The original of his Partita di bocce (oil on panel, 40 x 50 cm) from 1935 still bears the label of the 1936 art exhibition.
