      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Annunciation 1700</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Marcantonio Franceschini was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, active mostly in Bologna. He was a pupil of Carlo Cignani, with whom he worked on the frescoes in the Palazzo del Giardino in Parma (1678-1681). He worked closely for many years with his brother-in-law, Luigi Quaini, who also was the cousin of Cignani.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Franceschini had a long career painting canvases on religious and mythological subjects for patrons throughout Europe. Franceschini decorated the palazzo Ranuzzi (1680) and palazzo Marescotti Brazzetti (1682) in Bologna. Among his most prominent extant masterpieces, are the fresco cycle in the church of Corpus Domini in Bologna (1688-94) and San Bartolomeo (1690). Franceschini frescoed the Sala d’Onore (“Hall of Honor”) in the Ducal palace of Modena. He painted the altarpiece in the Duomo di Finale and the canvas of San Carlo in the church of the same name in Modena.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/franceschini/Franceschini_SibillaDef.jpg" alt="art" width="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Sibilla Delfica</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Unfortunately, his massive program of historical and mythologic scenes in the Sala del Maggior Consiglio of the Palazzo Ducale of Genoa (1701-1704) were destroyed by a fire in 1777. He painted 26 canvases of mythological subjects for the Prince of Liechtenstein in Vienna (1692-1700). He also painted for the palaces Spinola and the Pallavicini Podestà (1715) of Genoa. Canvases of the four seasons (1716) are now found in the Pinacoteca di Bologna. There are two canvases of the Story of Rachel in the Pinacoteca B.P.E.R.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">He painted the “cartoons” used to make the mosaic decoration of the Cappella del Coro in St. Peter’s Basilica. Knighted by pope Clement XI. He was founding a member and a subsequent director of the Clementine Academy in Bologna.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/franceschini/Franceschini_TheLastCommunionOfMaryOfEgypt.jpg" alt="art" width="auto" height="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Last Communion of St. Mary of Egypt, 1690</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">His paintings have an academic and idealist strain, even for a member of the Bolognese School of Painting. The sparse figures are severely arranged and often porcelain in features. He worked with a younger colleague, Donato Creti. His style is often classified as Barochetto, a mixture of baroque and rococo; but it also could be said the neoclassical influence of French artists was beginning to overtake the baroque tradition. Wittkower describes him as the “Bolognese Maratta”.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Numerous painters worked and trained in his prolific studio. Among those who spent time as pupils, apprentices, or assistants were Tomasso Aldrovandini, Luca Antonio Bistoia, Giacomo Boni, Francesco Caccianiga, Ferdinando del Cairo, Antonio Cifrondi, Giacinto Garofalini, Ercole Graziani the elder, Girolamo Gatti, Pietro Gilardi, Giuseppe Marchesi (il Sansone), Michelangelo Monticelli, Giuseppe Pedretti,Pietro Francesco Prina, Antonio Rossi (painter), Gentile Zanardi, his son Jacopo, and Giacomo Boni.</p>
