Domenico Maria Fratta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Domenico Maria Fratta, born at Bologna in 1696, studied under Giovanni Viviani, Carlo Rambaldi, and Donato Creti. He abandoned the art of painting, and devoted himself entirely to drawing with the pen, in which he acquired such perfection as to give to his productions a European fame. He died in 1763.
