Do you know any of these men?

Donatus Buongiorno may have painted images of his friends, or he may have hired local people to pose for him in New York, Naples or Solofra, Avellino, all places where he had studios. Do you know any of these people? If so, please contact me. I would love to trace who he knew and how he found his models.

Do you own one of these paintings?

For a catalogue raisonne project, I am interested in hearing from anyone who owns a painting by Donatus Buongiorno.
