Happy birthday, Lavinia Fontana 🎈

A renowned painter of religious subjects, Lavinia Fontana captured the splendor of Bolognese fashions with meticulous detail. By 1604, her fame had spread across the Italian peninsula—Pope Clement VIII even summoned the artist to Rome.

This impressive rendition of the Holy Family was likely commissioned for a private chapel. The storyline is crystallized in a few expressions, motifs, and gestures, while the infant's proximity to the picture plane focuses the devout beholder's attention, creating an intimate connection.

in 1642, Italian Baroque master Guido Reni took his final bow.

Reni brought elegance and emotion to myth and religion. This story features Ariadne, who was left heartbroken on the island of Naxos. The god Bacchus, crowned in vines, found her and fell in love at first sight. He lifted her grief, made her his queen, and placed her crown among the stars as the constellation Corona Borealis.
