1581-1641 Italian Domenichino Locations Italian painter and draughtsman. On the basis of his frescoes and altarpieces he became established as the most influential exponent of the 17th-century classical style. Through his critical analysis of the art of Raphael and Annibale Carracci he was influential in the creation of a modern canon of the ancients; and he was perhaps the most complete example of a 17th-century artist struggling to reconcile tradition with the demand for spectacle.  Related Paintings of Domenichino :. | The Cumaean Sibyl ertw | The Sacrifice of Abraham | The Maiden and the Unicorn (mk08) | Landscape with The Flight into Egypt | Landscape with The Flight into Egypt |
