	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img class="imgborder" src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_StCeceliaWithAnAngel.jpg" alt="art"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">St. Cecelia with an Angel</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Domenico Zampieri (or Domenichino), was a prominent high Baroque Italian painter of the Bolognese School, or Carracci School, of painters. He was born at Bologna, son of a shoemaker, and there was initially apprenticed under Denis Calvart. Soon he left to work in the Accademia degli Incamminati of the Carracci brothers. Leaving Bologna for Rome (1601), he became one of the most talented apprentices to emerge from Annibale Carracci's supervision, working alongside a senior contemporary like Albani and Guido Reni, as well as lifetime rivals such as Lanfranco.</p>
	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img class="imgborder" src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_StSebastian.jpg" alt="art"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">St. Sebastian</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Because of his stature, he was nicknamed "little Domenico". The panel depicting The Maiden and the Unicorn (1604-5) in Annibale's Gallery series titled The Loves of the Gods is attributed to Domenichino. Also in the Palazzo Farnese he painted three mythologic landscapes in the Loggia del Giardino. With the support of Monsignor Giovanni Battista Agguchi, the maggiordomo to Cardinal Aldobrandini and later Gregory XV, and Giovanni's brother Cardinal Girolamo Agguchi, Domenichino obtained commission for the Cappella dei Santissimi Fondatori in the medieval basilica of the Abbey of Grottaferrata (1608-10) a few miles outside Rome, and where the titular abbot was Odoardo Farnese. He also was commissioned for frescoes in church of Sant'Onofrio. Albani saw that he participated in decorating the Palazzo Mattei (1606-07) and Villa Odescalchi at Bassano di Sutri (today Bassano Romano). Reni worked with him on frescoes in the Oratorio di Sant'Andrea and at San Gregorio Magno. Working on The Scourging of St. Andrew (a fresco in the church of San Gregorio Magno), the artist was rumored to work himself into a passion, using threatening words and actions, and that Annibale Carracci, surprising him, exclaimed with joy, "To-day, my dear Domenichino, thou art teaching me."</p>
	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_GirlWithAUnicornFresco.jpg" alt="art" width="500" class="imgborder"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Girl with a Unicorn, Fresco Detail</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">After the passing of Annibale in 1609, the Roman art scene was dominanted the master's pupils. Domenichino's next commissions were scenes al fresco of the life of St. Cecilia for the Polet Chapel of San Luigi dei Francesi (1613-1614). Domenichino painted in fresco in San Silvestro al Quirinale, San Carlo ai Catinari, Santa Maria in Trastevere, Sant'Andrea della Valle and Santa Maria della Vittoria in Rome, as well as in the Villa Aldobrandini at Frascati.</p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Both Annibale and Domenichino were among the few landscape artists of the early Roman baroque, and would influence Claude Lorrain in the next.</p>
	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img class="imgborder" src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_MurderOfMartyr.jpg" alt="art"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Murder of St. Peter the Martyr</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">He was considered unsociable by many, and ultimately excited the rivalry of Lanfranco. Shortly after Domenichino had completed for the Oratorian church of San Girolamo della Carit&agrave; his celebrated for Communion of St. Jerome (1614, Vatican Pinacoteca), Lanfranco circulated copies of Agostino Carracci's (1591-97) painting of the Ultima Comunione di San Girolamo, alleging, not wholly without merit, plagiarism. Inspection of the two mirrored canvases would suggest that while he closely paraphrases Agostino, the accusation of plagiarism is debatable, since Domenichino's treatment is sharper, less crowded, and more focused on the beggarly figure of St Jerome.</p>
	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img class="imgborder" src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_AdamAndEve.jpg" alt="art"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Adam and Eve</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In 1630, Domenichino moved to Naples, to work on a series of frescoes (never wholly completed) of the life of St. Januarius in the Cappella del Tesoro. The so-called Cabal of Naples formed by the painters Corenzio, Ribera and Caracciolo banded together as to exclude non-Napolitan competition, and criticized and defaced the Bolognese artist's work. For instance, it is said he often found his previous day's work was rubbed out. Whether constant anxiety or rumored poison assailed him, he died in Naples in 1641.</p>
	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_TheHuntOfDiana.jpg" alt="art" width="500" class="imgborder"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Hunt of Diana</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Despite his prodigious output, Domenichino had a slow and labored style of painting, garnering him the nickname of Bue ("Ox") among Carracci acolytes. Domenichino, in the tradition of Annibale Carracci, restrained the late-Mannerist and Baroque impulses that were contorting the canvases of contemporaries; and aimed for a more settled peaceful representations.</p>
	  <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/domenichino/Domenichino_TheVirginInfantAndJohnTheBaptist.jpg" alt="art" width="500" class="imgborder"><br>
	    <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Virgin, Infant and John the Baptist</div></p>
	  <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Among the painters that apprenticed under him or which he influenced were Andrea Camassei (1602-1649), Giovanni Agnolo Canini, Giacomo Castro, Francesco Cozza (1605-82), Giovanni Domenico Cerrini, Francesco Grimaldi, Vincenzo Manenti, Francesco di Maria, Pietro del Po, Antonio Ricci (Barbalunga), Giovanni Battista Ruggieri, Giovanni Battista Salvi, il Sassoferrato (1609-85), Pietro Testa (1611-50), and Giovanni Domenico Cerrini (1609-81) Attributed work</p>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Seated Sappho</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Domenichino also went by the name James Pradier. He was born in Geneva, Switzerland in 1790. At a young age, Pradier showed signs of artistic talent. For this reason, his parents secured for him an apprenticeship with a jeweler. It was during this apprenticeship that he learned metal engraving.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">After attending drawing classes in Geneva, Pradier left for Paris in 1807. Three years later, he was registered at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and began studying sculpture under Francois-Frederic Lemont. He also received guidance from painter Francois Gerard.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In 1813, Pradier won the prestigious Prix de Rome. From there, he went on to reside in Rome at the French Academy from the years 1814 to 1819.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">After leaving the Academy, Pradier returned to France where he exhibited at the Salon in 1819. He began displaying Classical female subjects that had a hint of eroticism. Some features in his works of females include flawless posture and a contrast between skin and heavily pleated drapery. </p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img border="0" src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/pradier/Pradier_DaphneAndPanther.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Daphne and Panther</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">His sculptures had a cool Neoclassical surface finish. Many of the sculptures have mythological features with underlying eroticism. In fact, some of his works actually caused a scandal. His 1834 work Satyr and Bacchante raised the eyebrows of conservative government members who refused to purchase it. This sculpture is now housed in the Louvre.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Among his famous sculptures are the twelve Victories inside the dome of the Invalides. Pradier was commissioned to design and create twelve figures to encompass Napoleon’s tomb, as if standing guard. These figures are twelve huge marble creations. Each is winged and clothed in draping. Each one is crafted in an impressive, elegant style. The expressions on the faces of the creations are grave, further enhancing Pradier’s cold but impressive style.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img border="0" src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/pradier/Pradier_12Victories.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Twelve Victories</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Pradier, although primarily a sculptor, also produced some paintings. He is known and remembered as a painter, sculptor, and composer.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Pradier died in 1852 and is buried in the Pere-Lachaise cemetery in Paris.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Authentic works of Pradier tend to share similar characteristics. Many of them are of mythological characters. He had an affection for sculpting the female form. Most of the sculptures are erotic, showing women draped in a way that displays and complements the female form.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img border="0" src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/pradier/Pradier_Sappho1848.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Psyche</div>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Atalanta Fastening her Sandal, 1850</div>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img border="0" src="uploads/artists/artists_l-z/pradier/Pradier_Leda1851.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Leda, 1851</div>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Polypheme</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">It is highly likely that undiscovered works of Pradier exist. He was internationally known and produced a large number of small-scale works that he distributed throughout his career. Many of the small creations are reductions of his large-scale pieces. Many of them are bronzes.</p>
