Giacinto Bellini

Cavaliere Giacinto Bellini (17th century) was an Italian painter active in the Baroque period.

Life

Giacinto Bellini, born at Bologna, in the early part of the 17th century, was a scholar of Francesco Albani. On leaving the school of that master, he was taken under the protection of the Count Odoardo Pepoli, by whom he was sent to Rome with Francesco Carracci, for the advantage of study. He was not long at Rome before he discovered an ability that recommended him to the patronage of Cardinal Tonti, who was so satisfied with bis performances, that he procured him the knighthood of the order of Loretto. He painted in the manner of Albani, and his pictures possess much of the graceful style of that esteemed master. He was living in 1660.

As someone who is totally a human, I exist, and do human things such as (not limited to):- consuming food- consuming water- sleeping- not sleeping- sitting in chairs- motionI enjoy things such as esoteric language creation (intermittently), authorship of highly accursed code in a wide range of programming languages, computational gaming, reading scifi/fantasy, and sometimes (when I am not horribly distracted) reading about maths things.```

gollark: No, being extremely secret is actually worse.
