Faustino Bocchi
Faustino Bocchi (1659–1742) was an Italian painter, active in Brescia, who specialized in bizarre paintings of dwarfs. Biography He was son of Giacomo and Giulia Faioni, and was born in Brescia on June 17, 1659. It is not known if Bocchi ever moved from Brescia; Carboni, albeit with great uncertainty, cited a stay at the court of Florence, a stay that seems unlikely given the absolute silence of the Atoldi who also cited the three works painted by Bocchi for that court. What is certain is that Bocchi had a quiet life, and his study was presented as a sought-after place for cheerful conversationalists, enlivened by the music of the zither of which he was a good player. Bocchi was a pupil of Angelo Everardi (''il Fiamminghino'' or ''Fiammenghino''), a figurist, a painter of battles and bambocciate, who instructed him in these three genres; while the document Vinaccesi states that Bocchi was initially formed under Carlo Baciocchi and only later, when he became a friar, passed ...

Artists From Brescia
An artist is a person engaged in an activity related to creating art, practicing the arts, or demonstrating an art. The common usage in both everyday speech and academic discourse refers to a practitioner in the visual arts only. However, the term is also often used in the entertainment business, especially in a business context, for musicians and other performers (although less often for actors). "Artiste" (French for artist) is a variant used in English in this context, but this use has become rare. Use of the term "artist" to describe writers is valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like used in criticism. Dictionary definitions The ''Oxford English Dictionary'' defines the older broad meanings of the term "artist": * A learned person or Master of Arts. * One who pursues a practical science, traditionally medicine, astrology, alchemy, chemistry. * A follower of a pursuit in which skill comes by study or practice. * A follower of a manual art, such as a m ...

Ten thousand martyrs may refer to the ten thousand martyred Fathers of the deserts and caves of Scete by Theophilus of Alexandria or to the ten thousand martyrs of Mount Ararat who were, according to a medieval legend, Roman soldiers who, led by Saint Acacius, converted to Christianity and were crucified on Mount Ararat by order of the Roman emperor. The story is attributed to the ninth century scholar Anastasius Bibliothecarius. The ''Roman Martyrology'' contains two separate commemorations. The first is on March 18, corresponding to the very same date in the Greek Orthodox Synaxarion, where it is referred to as the ''"Myriads of Holy Martyrs, by the sword, at Nicomedia"''. Francis Mershman identifies these as those 20,000 Martyrs of Nicomedia killed during the Diocletian persecution. Mershma ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
