Artist Biography

Dosso Dossi (1479-1542), Italian

 

     Italian painter, one of the last of the Ferrara school. In addition to altarpieces and frescoes, he produced many easel paintings, in which he specialized in allegorical and mythological scenes illustrating stories from history and legend. He was an excellent colorist but mediocre at drafting, and most of his works depend for their effect on shimmering hues and warm atmospheric lighting. He was influenced by the Venetian artists Giorgione and Titian, and he combined their hallmarks—iridescent color, loose brushstrokes, and a love of landscape—with the individuality and fantasy of his Ferrarese heritage, to create a rich and at times somewhat oppressive romanticism.
