                        <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Although he excels as a talented artist, he never studied art as a child but only in adulthood with the painter Godofredo Sommavilla (1850-1944). He wrote several books, both art and law.</p>

                        <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Pedro Figari’s story is very curious. He started painting late, at the age of 60, the age at which people retire, and after a successful career as a lawyer, intellectual judge, journalist pedagogue, politician and philosopher, he decided indulge in painting. In 1921 he abandoned all these activities and devoted himself to art, although he had a previous career as a draftsman and painter, little known at the time. Everything he did and previously thought he dumped into his painting. At that time he moved to Buenos Aires where he remained for four years. In 1930 Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) wrote a book about Figari. During his stay in Argentina, Figari works especially on cardboard, and is also influenced by the work of Vuillard and Bonnard. This effect can be seen in his paintings of gauchos and the Pampas landscape.</p>
