Domenico Campagnola, the only artist of merit …

Years: 1563 - 1563

Domenico Campagnola, the only artist of merit working in Padua who represented the new style of the sixteenth century, dies in his late seventies in about 1563.

His painting style, particularly in the handling of large landscapes, had been strongly influenced by the style of Titian, with whom he had worked on the fresco cycle depicting the life of Saint Anthony in Padua’s Scuola di Sant' Antonio.

Campagnola executed three other frescoes in Padua’s Scuola del Carmine.

Also noted as an engraver, Campagnola' landscape drawings are to have the greatest influence on successive generations.
