Crucifixion Peinture par Antonello Da Messina

Antonello da Messina was an Italian painter from Messina who worked during the Early Italian Renaissance. His full name was Antonello di Giovanni di Antonio, but he was also known as Antonello degli Antoni and Anthony of Messina in English. His work is heavily influenced by Early Netherlandish painting, but there is no proof that he ever went anywhere else besides Italy. Giorgio Vasari said that he was the one who brought oil painting to Italy, but this is no longer agreed upon. Even though he was a Renaissance artist from the south of Italy, his work influenced painters in the north, especially in Venice.
Antonello may have learned to paint in Rome before going to Naples, where Dutch painting was popular at the time. In Naples around 1450, Antonello was a student of the painter Niccol Colantonio, according to a letter written by the Neapolitan humanist Pietro Summonte in 1524. Most art historians agree with this account of how he learned to paint.
