Donato Creti
(1671-1749) was an Italian painter of the Rococo period, active mostly in Bologna.
Born in Cremona, he moved to Bologna, where he was a pupil of Lorenzo Pasinelli. He is described by Wittkower as the "Bolognese Marco Benefial", in that his style was less decorative and edged into a more formal neoclassical style. It is an academicized grand style, that crystallizes into a manneristic neoclassicism, with crisp and frigid modeling of the figures. Among his followers were Aureliano Milani, Francesco Monti, and Ercole Graziani the Younger. Two other pupils were Domenico Maria Fratta and Giuseppe Peroni Related Paintings of Donato Creti :. | Carrucofamiliares | russian folk dancers | Portrait of Stephane Mallarme | The Walk to Emmaus | Portrait of Queen Anne | Related Artists: George Henry Hall1825-1913

Hall studied at the K?nigliche Akademie for about a year, and after a further two years of study in Paris and Rome he returned in 1852 to New York where he settled. However, he remained an enthusiastic traveller and spent a total of more than 20 years abroad. Bachiacca Italian painter, Florentine school (b. 1494, Firenze, d. 1557, Firenze).
