Life

Antonio Carracci was born in Venice in 1583. He began his art studies early and proved an apt scholar. He was taught first by his father, Agostino, and later and chiefly by his uncle Annibale for whom he developed a deep affection. With Annibale, he went to Rome where most of his work was done. Cardinal Tonti employed the talented youth to decorate his chapel, and on its completion he was commissioned to paint the chapel of St. Charles Borromeo, and a fresco in one of the rooms of the pope's palace at Monte Cavallo. His easel pictures were few, and are today exceedingly rare. In 1609, when his uncle and teacher, Annibale, died, he showed his devotion by burying him with great solemnity near the tomb of Raphael. His was an uneventful career. Antonio died in Rome in 1618.
