These works merit examination because they underscore the Tridentine dicta in Rome. This study investigates Passignano’s special reform style of painting to identify new stylistic precedents, contemporary associations, and influences, as well as to investigate iconographical issues in the context of early Seicento Rome.</p> <p>Domenico Cresti (1559-1638), called <i>Il Passignano</i>, studied with the students of Vasari, Girolamo Macchietti and Giovan Battista Naldini. When Federico Zuccaro came to Florence, Passignano joined his studio. In 1580, Passignano traveled to Rome with Zuccaro, and in 1581 he went with him to Venice, where he remained for the rest of the decade. The influence of late sixteenth century Venetian painting and sculpture had a strong impact on his style. In the 1590s, Passignano produced many works for the Florentine nobility and Tuscan churches.</p> <p>According to Baldinucci, Passignano and Santi di Tito obtained most of the commissions in Tuscany in these years. During this period, Passignano became a member of the Accademia del Disegno. His reputation helped to bring him back to Rome in 1602, when he was summoned to execute an altarpiece in San Pietro. The success of this work brought him many important Roman commissions, including the decoration of the Barberini family chapel in Sant’Andrea della Valle for the rising star, Cardinal Maffeo Barberini – later Pope Urban VIII.</p> 1995 English text Case Western Reserve University School of Graduate Studies / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1058283169 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1058283169 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
