He is generally considered the greatest and the most individual painter of his time in central Italy.

Santa Maria Delle Rose, Sant'Angelo In Pontano
Santa Maria delle Rose is a Baroque-style, Roman Catholic church located in the town of Sant'Angelo in Pontano, province of Macerata, region of Marche, Italy. History A male eremitic monastery was founded at the site in the 7th century, that was subsidiary to the Abbey of Farfa. In the 15th century, it passed to a Benedictine order of nuns, and the site likely housed a small Romanesque-style church for use by the cloistered nuns. The present church was refurbished in 1764. The layout includes a single nave with semicircular apse. In 1810, the monastery was suppressed, only to be re-opened in 1822. But in 1861, all the property was expropriated and much was sold; in 1880, the nuns were expelled. They moved into local private houses, and maintained as possible a cloistered life. Only in the 1990s, did the convent re-establish expansion. The interior of the church is highly decorated in Baroque fashion. The main altar has a frame flanked by columns with gilded capitals. The barrel-va ...

San Nicola, Sant'Angelo In Pontano
San Nicola is a Roman Catholic church and former convent located in the town of Sant'Angelo in Pontano, province of Macerata, region of Marche, Italy. History The church and convent, dedicated to St Nicholas of Tolentino, patron saint of the village of Sant'Angelo where he was born, were established in the 13th century by the Augustinian order, but refurbished over the centuries. The complex stands on its highest part, in a panoramic square, with the church next to the Convent of the Augustinians. The original church of S. Pietro di Posmonte, annexed to the first convent and probably later rebuilt, was named after Sant'Agostino. It was after 1446, the year of the canonization of Nicola di Compagnone, that his dedication was changed to that of San Nicola. At the end of the 16th century, the whole complex needed a radical adaptation and restructuring. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, Fra'Nicola Giovannetti prior to S.Angelo and Provinciale della Marca promoted the rearrange ...

16th-century Italian Painters
The 16th century begins with the Julian year 1501 ( MDI) and ends with either the Julian or the Gregorian year 1600 ( MDC) (depending on the reckoning used; the Gregorian calendar introduced a lapse of 10 days in October 1582). The 16th century is regarded by historians as the century which saw the rise of Western civilization and the Islamic gunpowder empires. The Renaissance in Italy and Europe saw the emergence of important artists, authors and scientists, and led to the foundation of important subjects which include accounting and political science. Copernicus proposed the heliocentric universe, which was met with strong resistance, and Tycho Brahe refuted the theory of celestial spheres through observational measurement of the 1572 appearance of a Milky Way supernova. These events directly challenged the long-held notion of an immutable universe supported by Ptolemy and Aristotle, and led to major revolutions in astronomy and science. Galileo Galilei became a champion ...

17th-century Italian Painters
The 17th century lasted from January 1, 1601 ( MDCI), to December 31, 1700 ( MDCC). It falls into the early modern period of Europe and in that continent (whose impact on the world was increasing) was characterized by the Baroque cultural movement, the latter part of the Spanish Golden Age, the Dutch Golden Age, the French ''Grand Siècle'' dominated by Louis XIV, the Scientific Revolution, the world's first public company and megacorporation known as the Dutch East India Company, and according to some historians, the General Crisis. From the mid-17th century, European politics were increasingly dominated by the Kingdom of France of Louis XIV, where royal power was solidified domestically in the civil war of the Fronde. The semi-feudal territorial French nobility was weakened and subjugated to the power of an absolute monarchy through the reinvention of the Palace of Versailles from a hunting lodge to a gilded prison, in which a greatly expanded royal court could be more easily ...

People From Ancona
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of p ...
