Antonio Travi Art
1608-1665
Antonio Travi (Sestri Ponente, 1608 - Genoa, 10 February 1665) was an Italian painter.
He was born in Sestri Ponente near Genoa in 1608, from a poor family and unable to support him in his studies. Despite his indigence, he managed to carry out an apprenticeship with the painter Bernardo Strozzi. He painted the Mystical Marriage of Santa Caterina for the church of Santa Caterina in Sestri Ponente, which remained his only altarpiece, however of a modest level.
The turning point that gave it a certain grandeur was the choice of the landscape genre. Before 1630 Gottfried Wals of Cologne had been hosted by Strozzi and, from the example he had received from this contact, Travi discovered his true vocation, becoming a landscape painter. His life does not have exceptional events, and it takes place in seclusion. In 1658 Travi married Antonietta Briani in a second marriage, celebrated in the parish church of Sestri Ponente. In 1665 the painter died.
He had therefore learned the genre that makes him important from a Flemish. The Italianized Nordic painters came to Italy to go to Rome or Naples, and were often passing through Genoa, or always on the road they were welcomed by Cosimo II de 'Medici in Florence. They carried on their type of landscape made up of elements taken from life, which is no longer the true lenticular of the ancient Flemings of a century or two before, with a display of precious details, but a truly random and photogrammatic spread following Caravaggism.to

Peter Monamy was an acclaimed British marine painter of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, renowned for his evocative depictions of seascapes and naval scenes. Born in 1681 on Guernsey, one of the Channel Islands, Monamy displayed an early affinity for art, which was shaped by the maritime culture of his homeland. His works vividly capture the drama and grandeur of the sea, marking him as one of the prominent marine artists of his time.
At a young age, Monamy moved to London, where he likely apprenticed with a sign painter. His artistic skills flourished during this period, influenced by Dutch marine painters such as Willem van de Velde the Younger...
