Matteo Zaccolini (April 1574 – 13 July 1630) was an Italian painter, priest and author of the late Mannerist and early Baroque periods. He was a mathematical theorist on perspective. He is also called "Zacolini" and "Zocolino".〔Bell, Janis C. "Zaccolini, Matteo." ''Grove Art Online. Oxford Art Online''. Oxford University Press, accessed April 6, 2014.〕 ==Works== Born in Cesena, he was a pupil of the local painter Francesco Masini, and became a Theatine priest. He was a protégé of Cardinal Vincenzo Giustiniani, who was renowned for his patronage of painters, including Caravaggio, Nicolas Poussin and Domenichino. Zaccolini collaborated with Baldassare Croce with the quadratura frescoes in the church of Santa Susanna, where he painted the trompe l'oeil columns.〔 In collaboration with Giuseppe Agellio, he painted in San Silvestro al Quirinale. He joined the Theatine order in 1603. From then on, he worked solely in Theatine projects, in Naples and Rome. He is best known for a four volume treatise, written 1618–1622, on the theory of painting with titles: ''De Colori'', ''Prospettiva del Colore'', ''Prospettiva lineale'', and ''Della Descrittione dell'Ombre prodotte da corpi opachi rettilinei''.〔 These works, while not in general circulation, gained him renown among eclectic circles in Rome. A historian, Giuseppe Silos, from the Theatines, in 1666 described Zaccolini as “Geniuses of our order and most admirable men of his age”. Bellori described him as a master of perspective and optics, and as having instructed Domenichino, Gagliardi, Circignani, and Cavaliere d’Arpino among others. Zaccolini was a fervent admirer of Leonardo da Vinci.〔Hall, M. B., & Cooper, T. E. (2013). (''The sensuous in the Counter-Reformation church'' ). New York: Cambridge University Press. p. 255. ISBN 1107013232〕 According to Zaccolini's early biographer Cassiano dal Pozzo, the earliest version of the manuscript was written in mirror-script which, like the manuscript's content, revealed the influence of the writings of Leonardo.〔Bell, Janis C.
