Biography:
After studying under an unknown master, Andrea Pozzo traveled to Milan and became a Jesuit. Subsequently, he began creating religious decorations, notably his frescoes for the church of San Francisco Saverio in Modovi that demonstrated his mastery of trompe d’oeil. This technique was used again in the ceiling of the church of Sant’Ignazio. Pozzo designed the tomb of St. Ignatius in 1695, the founder of the Jesuit order. For the remainder of his career, he worked as a sculptor, painter, and architect in Italy and Vienna.
