      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Annibale Carracci was a 16th century Italian painter, engraver and etcher. Born in the city of Bologna, he was one of the finest painters of his era. Along with his brother Agostino and his cousin Lodovico, the Carracci family of painters was very prominent artists and was very progressive in their time. During the height of their careers, the Carracci’s were working against the popular “Mannerist” styles of the day and created striking and unique compositions.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/carracci/Carraccu_LamentationChrist.jpg" alt="art"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Lamentation of Christ</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Some critics say that it is difficult to distinguish one Carracci from another in their early works because their styles were so similar. However, it is generally agreed that Annibale became by far and large the most talented of the three. He worked alongside his brother and his cousin at the painters academy that they opened, Academy of Desiderosi, as well as the “School of the Eclectics” until he was called away to work in Rome.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/carracci/Carracci_VenereConSatiro.jpg" alt="art"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Venere con Satiro e Cupido</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">While in Rome, Carracci was commissioned by the Cardinal Odoardo Farnese to decorate the Farnese Gallery. He painted frescoes on the ceilings and walls telling out the stories of the gods in High Renaissance style, inspired by the works of fellow masters Michelangelo and Raphael. This was considered his greatest masterpiece, and to create this ambitious project, he created literally hundreds of preparatory sketches. While in Rome, he also created a number of paintings that were very striking including genre scenes and landscapes.</p>
      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/carracci/Carracci_RiverLandscape.jpg" alt="art"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">River Landscape</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Towards the end of his life, Carracci became very depressed and did not produce much after 1606. After his death in 1609, his engravings and paintings of the human form were used as inspiration for countless students for over 200 years.</p>

      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Carracci, though not as widely known as some of his 16th century Italian contemporaries, was a fairly progressive artist. Some art historians credit him as the inventor of the caricature. He was also a very free spirited and unrestricted artist in terms of his genre pieces which featured unique and less formal themes and subjects for his time period. During the 19th century, the Carracci’s became almost completely forgotten when Italian art critic John Ruskin panned all of their works as being unoriginal, colorless, thoughtless and basically no good. The Carracci name has since been redeemed and catapulted into the ranks of Raphael and Rubens, both of which admired their work.</p>

      <p align="center" class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/carracci/Carracci_MontaltoMadonna.jpg" alt="art"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Montalto Madonna</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">The painting was well known to scholars, from early copies and engravings, but the original was one of the many lost masterpieces. The whereabouts of “Montalto Madonna” were unknown and had apparently disappeared early. The last mention of it was in 1672 by the biographer Gian Pietro Bellori.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Since then, no one knew if the painting had been destroyed or perhaps had survived somewhere. After more than 300 years of mysterious absence, someone casually walked in with a dusty painting they had inherited, wrapped in an old dog blanket, to have it looked at and appraised.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Painted on a copper sheet, it was very dirty but in marvelous condition, underneath the grime and centuries of fireplace and candlelight smoke deposits. It was purchased by the City of Bologna, the birthplace of the famous master.</p>
