Annibale Carracci
Annibale Carracci (1560-1609) was an influential Italian Baroque painter known for his innovative approach to composition and color. Born in Bologna, he played a crucial role in the transition from the Mannerist style to the more naturalistic Baroque style, emphasizing the beauty of the human form and the emotional depth of his subjects. Carracci co-founded the Accademia degli Incamminati, which aimed to teach a new approach to art that combined classical ideals with a focus on observation from nature. His works, including the famous frescoes in the Galleria Farnese in Rome, are celebrated for their dynamic compositions and vivid storytelling, marking a significant contribution to the development of Baroque art.
