Master Of The Acquavella Still-Life
The Master of the Acquavella Still-Life was an Italian painter, in the Baroque style, who was active in Rome during the 1610s and 20s and specialized in still-lifes. Works The notname he has been given derives from his work, "Natura morta con vaso di fiori, frutta e frutti del campo" (Still-life with a Flower Vase, Fruit and Fruit of the Fields), which is currently in New York at the Acquavella Galleries. Based on an analysis of style, technique and materials, several other works have been assigned to the same artist. He painted with a remarkable attention to detail and filled his canvases with flowers and fruits until they seem to burst at the frame. His works are a perfect example of the opulent styles developed in Italy during the Baroque period, as opposed to the prevailing still-life style from the Netherlands, which is more restrained, with elements of morbidity related to the transience of life (hence the Italian term for still-life, "natura morta"; dead nature) The fol ...

Giuseppe D'Arpino
Giuseppe Cesari (14 February 1568 – 3 July 1640) was an Italian Mannerist painter, also named Il Giuseppino and called ''Cavaliere d'Arpino'', because he was created ''Cavaliere di Cristo'' by his patron Pope Clement VIII. He was much patronized in Rome by both Clement and Sixtus V. He was the chief of the studio in which Caravaggio trained upon the younger painter's arrival in Rome. Biography Cesari's father, Muzio Cesari, had been a native of Arpino, but Giuseppe himself was born in Rome. Here, he was apprenticed to Niccolò Pomarancio. Cesari is stigmatized by Luigi Lanzi, as not less the corrupter of taste in painting than Marino was in poetry. (Lanzi disdained the style of post-Michelangelo Mannerism as a time of decline.) Cesari's first major work, done in his twenties, was the painting of the right counterfacade of San Lorenzo in Damaso, completed from 1588 to 1589. On 28 June 1589, he received the commission for the murals of the choir vault in the Certosa di San M ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Jusepe De Ribera
Jusepe de Ribera (1591 – 1652) was a painter and printmaker, who along with Francisco de Zurbarán, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, and the singular Diego Velázquez, are regarded as the major artists of Spanish Baroque painting. Referring to a series of Ribera exhibitions held in the late 20th century, Philippe de Montebello wrote "If Ribera's status as the undisputed protagonist of Neapolitan painting had ever been in doubt, it was not longer. Indeed, to many it seemed that Ribera emerged from these exhibitions as not simply the greatest Neapolitan artist of his age but one of the outstanding European masters of the seventeenth century."Pérez-Sánchez, Alfonso E., and Nicola Spinosa. 1992.
