Biography:
Taught by Battista Franco, Frederico Barocci developed his style further upon encountering Correggio’s work with sfumato around 1563. He soon mastered this technique and became known for his superior painting ability after incorporating his new skill into decorations for the Casino of Pope Pius IV. After completing many commissions, Barocci returned to Urbino in 1565 and worked only two hours a day, citing that poison was the cause of his illness and pain. His later work developed new and effective compositions that influenced later painters such as the Carracci brothers.
