Artist

Italian 17th - 18th century

1600–1699

Italian 17th - 18th century was a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art.

This artist worked in late 17th- to 18th-century Italy, specializing in bronze reliefs and ink drawings on paper. They carved dramatic scenes in bronze like *The Supper at Emmaus*, where mellow light falls on surprised faces, and sketched airy putti on paper in *Putti in the Clouds*, their chubby forms dissolving into soft strokes. Their small bronze and paper works sit close to the hand—perfect for noticing how light turns into shadow. To see more, tap *Putti in the Clouds* and trace the ink as it floats into the empty sky.
