About Tito Cittadini
- Tito Cittadini (1886–1960) was an Argentine painter.
- He was born in Buenos Aires to Italian immigrants, and in 1907 he began the study of architecture in Buenos Aires.
- He traveled to Europe in 1910, and at that time decided to switch his study to painting.
- In 1911 he began tutelage under Catalan painter Hermen Anglada, in Paris.
- Due to Anglada's urging, Cittadini made several trips to Spain during this period, and in 1913 he made his first trip to Majorca.
- The island captivated him, and it gradually became the central focus of his work. When World War I broke out in 1914, Cittadini established his permanent residency in Majorca, thereby insulating himself from the complications of that conflict.
- However, he continued to travel often to other countries. Cittadini was a prolific artist, working in oils, watercolor, and pencil.
- He also published several articles discussing theory and practice in painting.
- A posthumous work (1965) showcased his thoughts, Vademecum del aspirante a pintor (The Student Painter's Handbook). Cittadini died in Pollença, Majorca, in 1960.
- Most of his exhibited works now hang in Majorcan museums.
