Sunday Feature on ART of Architecture -by Gautam Shah
.
Giovanni Paolo Panini (1691-1765) was an Italian painter and architect. He also worked with stage scenery, Fresco decoration of palaces, and was a good figure painter. Panini was a professor of perspective and optics at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome and French Academy of Rome.
His works include exterior city, buildings, Roman ruins and interiors with substantial content of architectural imagination (capricci) and contemporary events and ceremonies. His good hand at figure drawing and their scaling makes scenes lively. Panini frequently repeated subjects, yet always retained his spontaneity by varying composition and details.
