DOSSI, Dosso
Italian High Renaissance Painter, ca.1490-1542
Although responsive to a wide range of outside influences, the most important of which were probably those of Giorgione in Venice and Raphael in Rome, he was an artist of great originality with a strong feeling for effects of light and colour. Landscape plays a prominent and highly expressive role in his work. He was employed, as were also the poets Matteomaria Boiardo (?1441-94) and Ludovico Ariosto, at the court of Ferrara, which was internationally renowned for its culture, especially its musical life and collections of art: one of his best-known works is an illustration of a magical scene from Ariosto's poetry, Related Paintings of DOSSI, Dosso :. | Circe (or Melissa) dfgd | Madonna and Child ddfhf | Diana and Calisto dfhg | Witchcraft (Allegory of Hercules) dfg | Circe and her Lovers in a Landscape sdgf | Related Artists: Julius Jacob the Youngerpainted in ca. 1910 DOMENICO DA TOLMEZZOItalian painter, Venetian school (b. ca. 1448, Friuli, d. 1507, Friuli)

Painter and draughtsman. Probably taught by his father, he entered the Guild of St Luke in Dordrecht in 1617, the same year that he executed an important commission to portray the masters of the Holland Mint (Dordrecht, Mus. van Gijn). He was the Guild bookkeeper in 1629, 1633, 1637 and 1641 and, according to Houbraken, led Dordrecht fine painters in their separation from the Guild in 1642. Jacob married Aertken van Cooten from Utrecht in 1618; his only child, (3) Aelbert Cuyp, was born two years later.
