Carlo Dalla Zorza (Venezia 1903, 1977) is the first exponent of the Veneto Post-Impressionism. At Burano he is linked to the happiest period of his painting, forty years, spent in a continuous silent aging of the qualities of freshness and light fragrance of the colour: so at the first Burano prize (1946) he was recognized as authentic master.
His paintings, since 1933-34, have a particular character: the fluidity, the elegance of touch, light impressionistic. They are usually views of estuary, channels, countryside.
In plen air of nature (Burano, the estuary, the hills Euganei, Asolo, the Riviera del Brenta) succeeded, as no one ever before, to seize the vital juice of impressionism
without bending, joining the interpretation staff with a colour as focus, as a blur, as depth and perspective as illusion.
