Giovanni Baglione is remembered for work the next generation could not ignore.
The record lists Giovanni Baglione as painter and biographer of artists (c. 1566–1643).
Giovanni Baglione was born at Rome in 1566. His recorded nationality is Italy.
This was the period in which the artist became an individual with a signature, a reputation and a price.
He worked as painter, art historian and historian.
His recorded movement is mannerism and baroque.
His best-known work is Resurrection of Christ. A painting outlives the argument about it, which is the only durable form of an artistic reputation.
That the work was made in Italy shaped it: artistic traditions, academies and the galleries that decide what is seen have never been evenly distributed.
Giovanni Baglione died in 1644, aged 78. The work remains, hanging in collections that outlived both the artist and the market that first priced it.
