Description: | Marco Ricci, nephew and probable pupil of Sebastiano Ricci, had a varied career as a painter, printmaker and set designer, and in his early years a somewhat turbulent private life. His murder of a man in a tavern brawl caused him to flee to the Dalmatian coast for four years, before returning to Venice in about 1700. His work suggests influences from various sources including the classical landscapes of Nicholas Poussin, and from the Venetian tradition of Titian, as well as the work of Salvator Rosa and others. | Subjects: | landscape; buildings and gardens; figure; animal (horse; donkey) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Ricci, Marco (Italian painter and draftsman, 1676-1730) Æ Attributed to Previously attributed to Italian School Previously attributed to Zais, Giuseppe (Italian painter, 1709-1781) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8419... | Go to resource |
