LIGOZZI, Jacopo
Italian painter, Florentine school (b. 1547, Verona, d. 1627, Firenze)
Italian painter, draughtsman, miniaturist and printmaker. He was one of the most productive artists in 17th-century Florence, although in the context of the Florentine Baroque, with its pageantry and decorative form, Ligozzi remained as much a foreigner in terms of his precise drawing, veristic figures and expressive content, as he was by birth. He was the son of the painter Giovanni Ermanno Ligozzi ( fl 1572-88; d before 1605) and came from a Veronese family of painters and designers of armour, tapestries and embroidery on silk. Other members of the family who were painters (Fumagalli in 1986 exh. cat.) were Jacopo's brother Francesco (d before 1635), whose career seems to have been in Verona, his cousin Francesco di Mercurio, who worked for the Medici in Florence in 1590-91 Related Paintings of LIGOZZI, Jacopo :. | Portrait of James Craggs the Elder | Floral, beautiful classical still life of flowers.128 | Blaugeflugelte Vogel signed and dated | Rhyton in the form of a lion griffin | The Virgin and Child Between Peter and Sebastian (mk05) | Related Artists: BICCI, Nero diItalian Early Renaissance Painter, 1419-1491 Christoph Amberger (c. 1505 --1562) was a painter of Nernberg in the 16th century, a disciple of Hans Holbein, his principal work being the history of Joseph in twelve pictures.
