	Annibale Carracci
		In 1595, Annibale entered the service of Cardinal Odoardo Farnese in Rome, and it was he who was responsible for exporting to the first city of Christendom the Carracci's reformed style of painting, which Annibale continued to develop with reference to the canonical Roman models of an idealized ancient and Renaissance art.
		Annibale, on the other hand, sought to give naturalistic verisimilitude to a perfected ideal that was deducible from experience, to represent not what is but what might be and what ought to be, and, in so doing, to inspire the viewer to virtue.

	Annibale Carracci, Degrazia 1 of 6 - NGA
		Annibale's epitaph praised his genius and the excellence of his art in all forms, indicating the importance of his contribution to the artistic life of contemporary Rome.
		Thus, Annibale came to be seen as Raphael reborn and as the guardian of the principles of tradition.
		By the nineteenth century and the age of romanticism, Annibale's reputation had fallen rapidly, until, by the late nineteenth century, he was dismissed as an eclectic and a copyist, devoid of originality and invention.

	Biography
		The Carracci was a family of Bolognese painters, the brothers Agostino (1557-1602) and Annibale (1560-1609) and their cousin Lodovico (1555-1619), who were prominent figures at the end of the 16th century in the movement against the prevailing Mannerist artificiality of Italian painting.
		In this sense, Annibale exercised a more profound influence than his great contemporary Caravaggio, for the latter never worked in fresco, which was still regarded as the greatest test of a painter's ability and the most suitable vehicle for painting in the Grand Manner.
		Annibale's art also had a less formal side that comes out in his caricatures (he is generally credited with inventing the form) and in his early genre paintings, which are remarkable for their lively observation and free handling (The Butcher's Shop, Christ Church, Oxford).

	Annibale Carracci
		Annibale Carracci (pronounced anNIBaly caRACHy) of course was hardly a saint, except perhaps in comparison to Caravaggio.
		Carracci was of the classical school of painting (a la Michelangelo and Raphael), while Caravaggio was on the cutting edge of the new Baroque movement.
		Carracci painted in a joyous, almost frivolous style while Caravaggio was strikingly dramatic to the point of being "gritty" in his search for naturalism and visceral impact.

		Based on the prolific and masterful frescoes by the Carracci in Bologna, Annibale was recommended by the Duke of Parma, Ranuccio Farnese, to his brother, the Cardinal Odoardo Farnese, who wished to decorate the piano nobile of the cavernous Roman Palazzo Farnese.
		Carracci in part was spared opprobrium because he was seen as an emulator of the highly admired Raphael, and in the Farnese frescoes, attentive to the proper themes such as those of antique mythology.
		Carracci's art also had a less formal side that comes out in his caricatures (he is generally credited with inventing the form) and in his early genre paintings, which are remarkable for their lively observation and free handling (see The Butcher's Shop) and his painting of The Beaneater.

	Annibale Carracci Drawings
		From their studio, the Italian brothers Annibale (1560-1609) and Agostino Carracci (1557-1602), with their cousin Ludovico (1555-1619), produced art that greatly influenced European painting and drawing of the 17th and 18th centuries.
		However, like most artists Annibale was influenced by a variety of sources, and his genius lay in his skill at adapting these disparate styles to his own original personality.
		Annibale's lasting contribution was not only his renewal of Renaissance sources, but his new appreciation of nature.

	Carracci Summary
		What the Carracci urged was a change from the artificial, antinaturalistic style then in vogue and a return to the realism, the richness, and in some cases the monumentality of the High Renaissance.
		Annibale, born in Bologna on Nov. 3, 1560, was the genius of the family, but he was slow to develop.
		In the last years of his life Annibale suffered a nervous collapse and, in the words of Bellori (1672), "was compelled to leave aside the brushes that melancholy had taken from his fingers." He must have suffered deeply, for his art was his whole life.

		Annibale Carracci opened a new space for artists derived on the one hand from their investigations into the effect of color and light in nature, and on the other from their critical analysis of the various artistic conventions for expressing these effects that had been developed by the great masters of the High Renaissance.
		Namely, the Carracci considered their reform as a return to nature, and in practice this meant reinstating the importance of imitating, natura naturata (which had in the sixteenth century been replaced by the imitation of the antique and ideal art) to a position equal to the imitation of natura naturans.
		The evidence of Annibale’s works and his teaching shows clearly that he were very much preoccupied with the doctrine of imitation, which was disfigured in the nineteenth century with the idea of eclecticism by Denis Mahon.

	The Drawings of Annibale Carracci - National Gallery of Art - Absolutearts.com
		Annibale Carracci is justly celebrated for his naturalism and ability to bring the human figure to life on the page, said Earl A. Powell III, director, National Gallery of Art.
		Annibale, together with his brother and cousin, founded an art academy--one of the first of its kind and the acknowledged prototype for those that followed throughout Europe--in which special emphasis was given to drawing, especially drawing from the live model.
		Even in Annibale's grandest paintings of gods and saints, the figures, gestures, and expressions are based in the same reality as the studies he made of ordinary people in their daily life.

	Annibale Carracci's Biography, Italian early baroque artist
		Annibale, born in Bologna on November 3, 1560, was the most important member of an influential family of painters that included his elder brother Agostino and their cousin Lodovico.

		In the Baptism of Christ (1584-5), Annibale seriously and extensively experimented with colorism, which was influenced from the Barocci’s techniques and applied the modified form of cangiantismo which is the basis of Barocci’s art, designed to maintain the three-dimensional form which pure value based painting tends to dissolve.
		Furthermore, it was Annibale’s conception of light as the medium of illusion, and the principles of which can be used to organize and heighten our experience and perception of the world that “distinguishes the Parma Pieta and his subsequent paintings from anything that went before.
		Annibale combined Barocci’s analysis of coloristic harmony of reflected light with a study of optical principles undertaken by Leonardo.

	The Lake of ThunCALAME 1854 Annibale CARRACCI
		In 1582, Annibale, his brother Agostino, and his cousin Ludovico Carracci opened a painter's studio, called by some initially as the Academy of Desiderosi (Desirous of fame and learning) or subsequently of the Incamminati (progressives; literally "of those opening a new way").
		While the Carraccis laid emphasis on the typically Florentine linear draftsmanship, as exemplified by Raphael and Andrea del Sarto, their style also derived from Venetian painters an attention to the glimmering colors and mistier edge of objects.
		In 1587-88, Annibale is known to have have traveled to Parma and then Venice, where he met up with his brother Agostino.

		From the affability and kindness of the Carracci, and their zeal for the scientific education of the students, their academy rose rapidly in popular estimation, and soon every other school of art in Bologna was deserted and closed.
		Annibale continued to work alone at the Farnese gallery till the designs were completed; but, disappointed at the miserable remuneration offered by the cardinal, he retired to Naples, where an unsuccessful contest for a great work in the church of the Jesuits threw him into a fever, of which he died in 1609.
		The reputation of Annibale is tarnished by his jealousy and vindictiveness towards his brother, and the licentiousness of his disposition, which contributed to bring him to a comparatively early grave.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Carracci
		In 1600 Annibale and Agostino had a disagreement, and the latter left for Parma, where for the rest of his life he painted for the duke.
		Cardinal Tonti employed the talented youth to decorate his chapel, and on its completion he was commissioned to paint the chapel of St. Charles Borromeo, and a fresco in one of the rooms of the pope's palace at Monte Cavallo.
		The fame of the Carracci Academy was great, its influence spread over all Italy, and Lodovico's was a great name–great more on account of the painters he developed than from his own work with the brush.
