PASSIGNANO, DOMENICO DA, Cavaliere,
born at Passignano about 1550, died
in Florence, May 17,
1638. Florentine
school; real name
Domenico Cresti;
pupil successively of
Girolamo Macchietti,
Battista Naldini, and
of Federigo Zucchero,
whom he aided in
painting the cupola of
S. M. del Fiore (the
Duomo), Florence, and with whom he went
in 1581 to Venice, where he profited by the
advice of Paolo Veronese; returned to Florence
in 1589, and was thrice called to Rome,—by
Clement VIII., who made him a knight
of the Order of Christ, by Paul V., and in
1625 to execute important works. Though
neither correct in design nor select in his
forms, he aided in the reform of the Florentine
school by improving the taste for colour.
He was a prolific and rapid painter,
and many of his pictures have faded. He
formed many pupils, among others, Alessandro
Tiarini and Lodovico Carracci. Perhaps
his most perfect work is a Glory in
the Church of the Fathers of Vallombrosa
at Passignano. Other works: Finding of
the Cross, Louvre, Paris; Adoration of the
Shepherds (1600), Darmstadt Museum;
Banquet of Ahasuerus, Vienna Museum;
Entombment, Palazzo Borghese, Rome; Assumption,
S. Andrea della Valle, ib.; Dead
Christ, Capella di Mondragone, Frascati;
