The '''Master of the Acquavella Still-Life''' was an Italian painter, in the [[Baroque art|Baroque]] style, who was active in Rome during the 1610s and 20s and specialized in [[still-life]]s.<ref>A. Cottino: "Le Origini e lo sviluppo della natura morta barocca a Roma, Natura morta italiana tra Cinquecento e Settecento". In: M. Gregori et al.: ''Stille Welt Electa'', 2002, pgs.351–352.</ref>
==Works==
The [[notname]] he has been given derives from his work, "Natura morta con vaso di fiori, frutta e frutti del campo" (Still-life with a Flower Vase, Fruit and Fruit of the Fields), which is currently in New York at the [[Acquavella Galleries]]. Based on an analysis of style, technique and materials, several other works have been assigned to the same artist.
He painted with a remarkable attention to detail and filled his canvases with flowers and fruits until they seem to burst at the frame. His works are a perfect example of the opulent styles developed in Italy during the Baroque period, as opposed to the prevailing still-life style from the Netherlands, which is more restrained, with elements of morbidity related to the transience of life (hence the Italian term for still-life, "natura morta"; dead nature)
The following painters have been proposed as the Master's true identity: [[Luca Forte]] from Bottari, [[Angelo Caroselli]] from Bologna, [[Giovanni Battista Crescenzi]] from Rome and [[Pietro Paolini]] from Salerno.<ref>Sotheby's New York: ''Master of the Acquavella Still Life''. Auction catalog N07759 January 2002, Lot 206.</ref> None of these artists are currently favored over the others.
Identification is made more difficult by the fact that most of his works are privately owned.
