Work and Life
Romualdo Locatelli (1905-1943?) was born in Bergamo in a family of three generations acclaimed artists. After reaching success in the best art circles of Milan and Rome, painting for the Vatican and for the Savoy Royal family, his acute urge to travel pushed him to new horizons: he was not looking for social prestige but always for new lighting and costumes to portray. In 1938, at the top of Italian career, he left his homeland, invited by the colonial Dutch Governor to visit East Indies, where he disappeared under mysterious circumstances in the forests by Manila, on February 23, 1943.
