Orazio Gentileschi Biography

(b Pisa, 1563; d London, 7 Feb 1639). Although he was eight years older than Caravaggio, he is nevertheless regarded as a Caravaggesque artist, so deeply was his mature style affected by his knowledge of the younger painter’s art. His response to Caravaggio was intensely poetic, and none of Caravaggio’s many gifted followers produced more beautiful pictures.
