Biography:
After studying under Perugino, Bacchiacca developed a distinct style that borrowed from many influences but retained a sense of clarity and order. His work was a conglomeration of his admiration for artists such as Albrecht Durer, Marcantonio Raimondi, and Jacopo Pontormo. In 1523, Bacchiacca worked with the latter on painted bedroom decorations, a collaboration that led to his adoption of a more Mannerist style. However, by the early 1540’s, he returned to painting in a classical style inspired by Michelangelo’s models. Bacchiacca later designed tapestries.
