Catalogue Note
Massimiliano Galleli collabore avec Cesare Maccari et travaille sur plusieurs décors à Rome. En 1886, il part à Paris puis s'installe à Nice. Il participe au décor du Casino de Monte Carlo: en 1903 il réalise Les fumeuses pour le plafond de l’ancien fumoir du Casino, et en 1908 il exécute la joie de l’eau pour le hall d’entrée de l’ancien établissement thermal. Il exécute également le décor de la coupole du sporting Club de Monaco. Il rentre en Italie en 1924 mais reste très présent sur la côte d'Azur et ses compositions reflètent l'ambiance de la Riviera.
