DOSSI, Dosso
Italian High Renaissance Painter, ca.1490-1542
Although responsive to a wide range of outside influences, the most important of which were probably those of Giorgione in Venice and Raphael in Rome, he was an artist of great originality with a strong feeling for effects of light and colour. Landscape plays a prominent and highly expressive role in his work. He was employed, as were also the poets Matteomaria Boiardo (?1441-94) and Ludovico Ariosto, at the court of Ferrara, which was internationally renowned for its culture, especially its musical life and collections of art: one of his best-known works is an illustration of a magical scene from Ariosto's poetry, Related Paintings of DOSSI, Dosso :. | Diana and Calisto dfhg | Madonna and Child ddfhf | Witchcraft (Allegory of Hercules) dfg | The Virgin Appearing to Sts John the Baptist and John the Evangelist dfg | Circe (or Melissa) dfgd | Related Artists: Vital Jean De GronckelVital Jean de Gronckel (1820 - 1890, Belgian) Jacob Carl Stauder(1694 -1756 ) - Painter
