Summary/Abstract: Th e study is meant to provide a new approach of Giovanni Schiavoni’s work after the very good monographic study of this painter’s activity by H. Blazian, dated to 1939. Since then, the Moldavian history of art has not registered any other major contributions regarding this artist. Th e painter was characterized on the basis of very few works, which were known until 1939. Th e present study brings into discussion an important number of paintings by Giovanni Schiavoni, which are known to a very little extent or some of them even completely unknown. Th ey may lead to a reassessment of the Italian painter, or at least to an enlargement of the perspective we had on him until now.
