Acerca de

La familia Gandolfi -Ubaldo, su hermano Gaetano y su sobrino Mauro- fueron los últimos grandes pintores de la escuela boloñesa, que alcanzó relevancia internacional a finales del siglo XVI. El conocimiento seguro de la anatomía humana que demuestran estas pinturas revela la deuda de Ubaldo con la tradición boloñesa, que se basaba firmemente en el dibujo de modelos vivos.

Ubaldo Gandolfi (1728–1781) was an Italian painter, draughtsman and sculptor of the late-Baroque period, mainly active in and near Bologna. He is known for his biblical, mythological and allegorical subjects as well as his portraits and nudes. Ubaldo and his brother Gaetano were during their lifetime among the first and most celebrated artists of Italy. This fame was gained by the excellent quality of their works, which lead to many and important commissions they had from courts and countries all over Europe.
