Francesco Hayez

Francesco Hayez was an Italian painter, considered one of the leading artists of Romanticism in Italy in the mid-19th century.

He showed talent as an artist early on, studying painting in Rome and at the Venice Academy. Arriving in Milan in 1823, he quickly established himself at the center of the intellectual and aristocratic life of the city. Hayez created grandiose paintings of historical subjects with a patriotic context, popular biblical scenes and plots from classical literature. The artist loved political allegories as well. He also painted portraits, subtly reflecting the characters of the people portrayed.
