Carlo Cignani

Carlo Cignani (15 May 1628 – 8 September 1719) was an Italian painter.His innovative style referred to as his 'new manner' introduced a reflective, intimate mood of painting and presaged the later pictures of Guido Reni and Guercino, as well as those of Simone Cantarini.

This gentle manner marked a break with the more energetic style of earlier Bolognese classicism of the Bolognese School of painting.
