Biography:
The most famous artist to come from the island of Messina, Antonello became one of the leading oil painters in Italy. Although Vasari reports that he learned his technique from Jan van Eyck, it is more likely that he learned his approach in Naples. Although he worked mainly in Messina, he spent time on the Italian mainland. In 1475, Antonello traveled to Venice where he painted an altarpiece for the church of San Cassiano. He also painted several bust portraits in a style similar to that of the Netherlandish painters.
