Giacomo Cordelli was an Italian painter, active circa 1600-1620. ==Biography== He was born in Viterbo, and is known for the lunette frescoes, depicting old-testament subjects, in the choir adjacent to the Augustinian church of the Santissimi Trinita in the town. The style is a late-mannerist style, somewhat crude and recalling the style of painting used on maiolica. The subjects include:〔(Fondazione Zeri Catalogue. ).〕 *Samson drinks from the jawbone of an ass *Into the Philistine grain fields, Samson releases the jackals (or wolves) with flames tied to their tails *Samson carries away the portals of Gaza *Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the Furnace *Habakkuk, transported by the angel, brings food to Daniel in the lion's den * Abraham and the three angels The frescoes depicting the life of Saint Augustine were painted by Marzio Ganassini.〔(Associazione Storico-Culturale Sant'Agostino ), entry on S. Trinita in Viterbo.〕 Some sources attribute to him engineering works.〔(Brevi notizie della città di Viterbo, e degli uomini illustri dalla medesima ); by Gaetano Coretini, Stamperia di San Michele a Ripa Grande, presso paolo Giunchi, (1774) Page 129.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Giacomo Cordelli」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
