Description: | Carlo Maratti (1625-1713), painter, draughtsman and printmaker, continued to work in a classicist language while developing a style in accord with the Roman High Baroque requirements of his day. His late works presage the elegance of 18th century Rococo and Neoclassicism. From the 1680s, after Bernini's death, Maratti took over as the leading artist of the Roman School; his innovative style and compositions became widely known through many reproductive prints. The small Virgin and Child, shows some stylistic correspondences with Maratti's style and, although certainly not by the master himself, could be described as late 17th century Roman and possibly a follower. | Subjects: | religion (Virgin and Child); figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Maratti, Carlo (Italian painter, 1625-1713) Æ Attributed to manner of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8791... | Go to resource |
