Gabriele Caliari
Italian trader and painter (1568-1631)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gabriele Caliari (1568–1631) was an Italian of the late-Renaissance period. He was the eldest son of Paolo Veronese, born in 1568, and died of the plague. After training in the workshop of his father, he seems to have painted few pictures of his own, and devoted himself chiefly to commerce, going on painting just for pleasure.[1]
His work is included in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago,[2] the Rijksmuseum,[3] Palazzo Ducale[4] and the National Gallery of Art.[5]
