Biography:
Andrea Sacchi was devoted to the Baroque Classicism style of his time and was unappreciative of the work of other Baroque artists such as Pietro da Cortona and Gianlorenzo Bernini. He believed that historical paintings should contain few figures in order to retain the simplicity of classic artwork. However, Cortona debated against him and this fact at the Academy of Saint Luke, thinking that paintings with more figures and complexity were superior. Sacchi’s work was in accordance with that of his friends, sculptor Alessandro Algardi and painter Nicolas Poussin. His classical style became dominant at the end of the 17th century, spread by Sacchi’s pupil Carlo Maratti.
