Manuel Musto
Argentine artist (1893-1940)
Manuel Musto (born September 16, 1893) was an Argentine impressionist painter. He was born in Rosario.
In 1914 Musto traveled to Florence, Italy. He returned to Argentina after hearing of his father's death. His style was influenced by the Italian school of the 19th century, including bucolic scenes of the countryside and flowers. The bulk of his work is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Rosario. The house where he resided is home to the art school that honors his legacy and name.
Musto died at age 47 on September 12, 1940.

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Manuel Musto” as argentine artist (1893-1940). Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as argentine artist (1893-1940). Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6752762. VIAF identifies the subject as 914149844989902960001. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 1 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1893, 1914, 1940 and 1942.
Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
