Agostino Carracci: Bridging Mannerism and Naturalism in Bolognese Baroque Agostino Carracci (August 16, 1557 – March 22, 1602) stands as a pivotal figure in the burgeoning Baroque movement within Bologna, Italy. Often overshadowed by his more celebrated brother, Annibale, Agostino’s artistic vision—characterized by a deliberate rejection of Mannerist formalism and an embrace of classical ideals—established him as a crucial innovator who profoundly impacted the stylistic trajectory of Bolognese painting.

A chart of Agostino Carracci's corpus mapped not by date but by subject. Spokes are what they painted; rings are when; and the threads between stars reveal the patrons and places that secretly connect them.
Each arm of the atlas gathers works by what they depict: portraits, sacred scenes, mythologies, and the scientific studies. Click a spoke to swing that cluster to the top.
Distance from the center marks time. The innermost ring is the earliest period; the outermost, the final years. Style matures as you move outward.
Coloured lines link works bound by the same patron, commission, or theme. Trace a context to watch related clusters light up across subjects.
