Couple of Still Lifes. This work is catalogued and published by the Fundazione Federico Zeri of the University of Bologna since 1973. Nicola Casissa was a pupil of Andrea Belvedere. Several of his paintings appear in the 1714 inventory of Duke Nicola Coppola of Canzano. Among his pupils are Leonardo Coccorante and Giorgio Garri. With these words Nicola Spinosa (1986) defines Nicola Casissa: "a painter of more established qualities and perhaps even older, probably ahead of Malinconico and Cusati himself, of an intelligent translation, in key of luminous decorativism, of the aerial and imaginative modes of Luca Giordano".Measures: 75 x 101 cm.
