Giovanni Battista Torriglia

Giovanni Battista Torriglia (1858-1937) was an Italian painter active during the Romantic era. He studied under Nicolò Barbino at the Ligustica Academy of Fine Arts from 1875 to 1882 in Genoa, Italy with other pupils who would later collectively be referred to as the "Barabinian School." Many of his paintings depict scenes of domestic life with families working and playing together indoors.
