1603 – 1653

Italian painter, part of a family of still-life painters, father of Giuseppe Recco. He was one of the first Neapolitan still-life painters, specializing exclusively in flower subjects and in part still inspired by late Mannerism. His only dated painting is a Vase of Flowers (1626; private collection), an early work influenced by Flemish still-life painting in its accurate depiction of nature and its brilliant colours.Show more
