Death
In 1913, he became acquainted with Lorenzo Viani. During World War I, Caselli was captured and interned in a concentration camp in Austria. After that, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, at the "free school of the nude". His painting style is situated between the first divisionists expressions of the early twentieth century, and a personal expressionism, close to the Austrian groundbreaking movements, but also influenced by the poetry of his friend Viani, with his entire repertoire of characters suffering and desperate. Being very linked to La Spezia, Caselli dedicated his painting to portray the life of the city and the province, and specially, the life in the Cinque Terre.
Caselli died in La Spezia, on 19 December 1976, aged 83.
