 Bolognese School
Generally the term Bolognese School denotes the school of Italian painting which in the 16th and 17th centuries was the centre of classicism as taught by the Carracci Academy.
In the most restricted sense, Bolognese school means the works produced and the theories expounded by the late 16th- and early 17th-century Italian painters Lodovico Carracci and his cousins, the brothers Agostino and Annibale Carracci.
The activity of the Bolognese school caught the attention of Cardinal Odoardo Farnese, and Annibale was invited to Rome in 1595 to decorate first the ceiling of the Camerino and later that of the Galleria in the Palazzo Farnese.

 ASC 2001 Conference Paper: Frank Galuszka
The word "yellow" painted blue is simultaneously stressful and delightful, as it seems to pit two parts of the brain against one another: The word evokes the color it intends, while defeating it in transit, eliciting a contrary response among the colors, which itself is defeated upon return to the world of words.
For Mondrian, the neoplasticist painting sought to be a stargate between the materiality of the earth and the ideals of a higher realm.
For Cezanne, painting is an act of not duplication of the subject or near duplication of the subject, but of linking to a subject, of coordinating his own pattern-making imaginative process with the subject (or motif) he observed.

 Annibale Carracci - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Starting 1597, he led a team painting the ceiling of the grand salon with the secular themes of The Loves of the Gods, or as Bellori described it, "Human Love governed by Celestial Love".
Annibale was one of the first Italian painters to paint canvasses wherein the landscape took priority over figures, such as his masterful The Flight into Egypt; this is a genre in which he was followed by Domenichino (his favorite pupil) and Lorraine.
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 (see The Butcher's Shop) and his painting of The Beaneater.

Giuseppe Maria Crespi was born in Bologna in 1665.
With the financial support of the Bolognese collector Giovanni Ricci, Crespi followed his own version of the Carracci's "studioso corso" to Parma, Urbino, Pesaro, and Venice, in order to study and copy (also for resale by Ricci) the works so important in the initial formation of the Bolognese school.
His genre painting was the most influential aspect of his art, especially for the Venetians Giovanni Battista Piazzetta, who almost certainly studied in Bologna for a time, and Pietro Longhi.
