CANTARINI— CARDUCCIO. 37 nese School. He studied under Pan- dolfi, Glaudio Bidolfi, and afterwards at Bologna with Guido. He spent also some time at Borne. In execution, Cantarini was perhaps the best of all the Garracceschi and the rival of Guido himself, to whom he was even superior in the extremities ; bis portraits are admirable ; as are his heads generally. He was inordinately vain of his abilities, and accordingly disagreeable, and it is supposed that he was poisoned: he died at the early age of 36. He etched several plates in a masterly manner. Works. Pesaro, at the Philippines, the Magdalen ; at the Predicants, San. I>omenico. Gagli, at the Franciscans, Sant Antonio; Rimini; San Jacopo; the Titular ; and San Pietro. Bologna Gallery, portrait of Guido (a master- piece) ; and two sacred subjects. Milan, Brera, Transfiguration. Louvre, seve- ral specimens. (Malvasia.) CANUTI, DoMENico Maria, h. at Bologna, 1620, d. 1684. Bolognese School. Among the best of the pupils of Guido, who followed his later manner; and an excellent fresco- painter. Works. Bologna, Church of P. P. Olivetani, Descent from the Cross, called the Notte del Canvti : Academy, San Benedetto, the Virgin in Glory; Palazzo Pepoli. Rome, Palazzo Oolonna. {Malvasia.) CAPANNA, or Campana, Puccio, painted about 1334. Tuscan School. One of the followers of Giotto. He painted in the church of San Frcmcesco, at Assisi ; after the death of Giotto : several of these works are preserved, also the frescoes of the Cappella di San Lodovico; and a Santa Maria Egiziaca, in San Francesco, at Pistoja. ( Vasari.) CAPELLO, Gio. Antonio, b, at Brescia, 1660, rf. 1741. Venetian School. A pupil of Pompeo Ghitti ; he studied also at Bologna under Lorenzo Pasinelli, and at Rome under G. B. GauUi. He painted in fresco and in oils, chiefly at Brescia, where are works by him in many of the churches. {Ticozzi.) CAPPELLINO, Gio. Domenico, 6. at Genoa, 1580, d. 1651. Genoese School. A pupil of Gio Battista Paggi. There are several of his works in the churches of Genoa. (Soprani.) CARACCIOLO, GiAMBATTisTA, h. at Naples, 1580, d. 1641. Neapolitan School. He was a pupil of Michel- angelo da Caravaggio ; and studied also the works of Annibal Carracci in the Famese Gallery at Rome ; but the naturalism of Caravaggio had a greater influence upon his style. Caracciolo joined Spagnoletto and Corenzio, in a conspiracy to prevent all talented strangers by persecution from establishing themselves as painters in Naples. Works. In the churches of Santa Maria della Solitaria : Sant' Anna dei Lombardi: Sant' Agnello, &c., at Naples. {Dominici.) CARAVAGGIO. [Ameeighi, Cal- BARA.] CARBONE, Gio. Bernardo, h, at Albaro, 1614, d. 1683. Genoese School. A pupil of Andrea de* Ferrari, an historical and portrait- painter, in the latter branch dis- tinguished.
