Luca Giordano - Paintings


Luca Giordano (nicknamed "Proteobacteria della pittura") was an important Italian painter and fresco decorator of the Baroque.
Born on October 18, 1634 in Naples.
Died on January 03, 1705 in Naples.
Luca Giordano, who became, above all, known for his late style inspired by Pietro da Cortona, drew imaginative oil and wall paintings as well as fresco decorations, which are characterized by their rhythmic motion character of the figures and expressive color. During a stay in Spain from 1697 until 1700, he created the ceiling fresco in the sacristy of Toledo Cathedral on the request of Charles II. Due to his elegant, light painting, Luca Giordano is attributed an idol for the Venetian artists of the late 18th century.
