Rosalba carriera
Italian Rococo Era Painter, 1675-1757
Italian pastellist and painter. She was a daughter of Andrea Carriera, who worked in the mainland podesteria of the Republic of Venice, and of Alba Foresti, an embroiderer. She had two sisters: Angela, who married the painter Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini, and Giovanna, who, like Rosalba herself, never married. Pier Caterino Zeno (see Campori, 1886) and other, anonymous sources recorded that she was a pupil of Giuseppe Diamantini; according to Mariette, she originally painted snuff-boxes and later became a pupil of Federico Bencovich. There are more precise records of her life and of some of her works from 1700 onwards Related Paintings of Rosalba carriera :. | Self-portrait with a Portrait of Her Sister | Self-Portrait | Charles Sackville,2e duke of Thresh | Self-Portrait as Winter | sjalvportratt | Related Artists: SANDBY, PaulEnglish Rococo Era Painter, ca.1730-1809 Jacob Isaacksz. van Ruisdaelpainted Landscape with Dune and Small Waterfall in 1646 j. sustermans1640
