description

Summary

Domenico Fetti was an Italian Baroque painter born in Rome around 1589. He trained with Ludovico Cigoli and later worked with Guido Reni in Bologna. Fetti's style was influenced by Caravaggio and he is known for his dramatic use of light and shadow. Fetti's early works were religious paintings, but he later became famous for his portraits. His most famous painting is 'Melancholy' (1620), which depicts a woman lost in thought and surrounded by symbolic objects. Fetti's career was cut short when he died at the age of 34. However, his influence on Baroque art was significant and his works can be found in museums and collections around the world.
