Simonetti was born in
Rome, January 29, 1929, into a well known family of accomplished
artists. From his father he inherited his love for art and his great
taste for colors.
He began his studies at
the Rime School of Art, where he quickly won his professor's recognition
and praise. After these studies, he traveled extensively throughout
Italy and France, where he painted from nature and learned from his
associations with other artists in all the important Art Centers.
He still paints and exhibits regularly in Rome, Venice, Naples, Milan
and Paris.
His works today express
the unique maturity of his talent. Though he seeks out new expressions
in art, Simonetti's art always sticks to the fundamentals of painting
exquisite drawing, composition and color.
His landscapes of the
Italian countryside, his marine paintings of coastal village and the
scenes of the canals of Venice, appeal to everyone because of the well
balanced technique and the sense of the poetry that pervades each
painting.
Today his works are in
private collections worldwide.
