DANIELE CRESPI (Busto Arsizio 1590-1630 Milan)
Daniele Crespi Biography
(b ?Milan, 1597–1600; d Milan, 19 July 1630). Italian painter and draughtsman. He was the most original artist working in Milan in the 1620s, the first to break with the wilfully exaggerated manner of Lombard Mannerism and to develop an early Baroque style, distinguished by clarity of form and content. In this context his Supper of St Carlo Borromeo (Milan, S Maria della Passione; see fig. 1 below) is one of the most famous early 17th-century pictures in northern Italy. Crespi’s style, both as a painter and as a draughtsman, is a fusion of Lombard and Emilian sources.
