CALVART, DENIS (1540-1619)

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 70 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAL-CAR
CALVART, DENIS (1540-1619) , Flemish painter, was
born
  at Antwerp. After studying landscape-
painting
  for some time in
his native
city
  he went to Bologna, where he perfected himself in the anatomy of the human form under Prospero
Fontana
 , and so completely lost the mannerism of Flemish art that his paintings appear to be the
work
  of an Italian. From Bologna he went to Rome, where he assisted Lorenzo Sabbatini (15331577) in his works for the papal palace, and devoted much of his time to copying and studying the works of
Raphael
 . He ultimately returned to Bologna and founded a school, of which the greatest ornaments are Guido and Domenichino. His works are especially admired for the
power
  of grouping and colouring which they display.
