Buscaglione was born at Ariano di Puglia (now
Ariano Irpino in
Campania), to a family originally from
Biella in the
Piedmont. He was a pupil of
Lorenzo Delleani at the
Accademia Albertina, who inspired his interest in landscapes. He exhibited frequently and widely, in Turin, Venice, Milan, Trieste and Palermo. Although long forgotten, he has recently enjoyed a renewal of interest, especially in
Piedmont. Much of his work is set in
Liguria and
Lombardy, and all of his canvases carry notations, giving precise locations and times. He died near Turin, in the commune of
Rivoli. ==Sources==
