Collection: Paolo Antonio Barbieri

Paolo Antonio Barbieri (1603–1649) was a Bolognese painter of the Italian Baroque. He was the brother of Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, usually known as Il Guercino. He was born at Cento, a village near Bologna. The subjects of his pictures are flowers, fruit, and game, but he particularly excelled in painting fish, which he represented with astonishing fidelity.

He focused on still life.
