Giacomo Del Po, master of late Baroque

Giacomo Del Po, an Italian painter of late Baroque, drew inspiration from the great Neapolitan and Roman masters, blending theatricality and pictorial virtuosity. Active in the 17th–18th centuries, he excelled in historical and religious compositions, seeking the dramatic grandiloquence characteristic of his era. Influenced by Caravaggisti contrasts and the decorative momentum of Italian workshops, Del Po knew how to animate his scenes with an epic breath that brings the viewer closer to ancient stories. The reinterpretation he offers here of the myth of Aeneas stands out for its sense of movement and chromatic mastery, qualities that make every art print of The Fight between Aeneas and King Turnus in Virgil's Aeneid a vibrant testimony of his art.
