Andrea Mantegna

Bust attributed to [[:fr:Gian Marco Cavalli|Gian Marco Cavalli]]<ref>{{cite book |last=Decker |first=Heinrich |title=The Renaissance in Italy: Architecture • Sculpture • Frescoes |year=1969 |orig-year=1967 |publisher=The Viking Press |location=New York |page=109}}</ref> Andrea Mantegna (, ; ; September 13, 1506) was an Italian Renaissance painter, a student of Roman archeology, and son-in-law of Jacopo Bellini.

Like other artists of the time, Mantegna experimented with perspective, e.g. by lowering the horizon in order to create a sense of greater monumentality. His flinty, metallic landscapes, and somewhat stony figures give evidence of a fundamentally sculptural approach to painting. He also led a workshop that was the leading producer of prints in Venice before 1500. Provided by Wikipedia
