1605 – 1654

Luca Ferrari (called Luca da Reggio), Italian painter. The sources maintain that he was a pupil of Guido Reni, but to judge from the style of his earliest surviving works - the Miracle of Giovanni Francesco Vincenzo and the Miracle of Laura di Correggio (both c. 1626-27; Reggio Emilia, Madonna della Ghiara) - which show no hint of Reni's influence, he was more likely to have trained in his home town alongside the artists Leonello Spada, Alessandro Tiarini and Carlo Bononi, who in the 1610s and 1620s were decorating the basilica of the Madonna della Ghiara.Show more
