1555 -1619 · Bolognese school and first baroque
Intense devotion, natural gestures and dramatic light make Ludovico Carracci the main architect of the Bolognese religious revival.
Born in Bologna in 1555, Ludovico Carracci trained with Prospero Fontana before traveling to Northern Italy. With his cousins Agostino and Annibale, he founded the Accademia degli Incamminati, which places the study of life and the great masters at the heart of painting. Remaining mainly in Bologna when his cousins left for Rome, Ludovico developed vast altarpieces and religious cycles marked by emotion, chiaroscuro and direct humanity. His teaching shaped an entire generation of Bolognese painters. The selection "Carracci, Ludovic (Ludovico Carracci, known as)" notably compares The Apparition to Saint Hyacinth and The Virgin and Child. His reading favors the material.
Ludovico brings the miracle down into human space: sacred light touches real, heavy and deeply moved bodies.
