Solari, Andrea da

    0.10 sec.

Solari, Andrea da (1460–1520)

Italian painter. He travelled widely, his style as a consequence combining the influences of Leonardo da Vinci and Venetian and Flemish painting. His Giovanni Cristoforo Longoni (1505, National Gallery, London) shows a masterly ability in portraiture.

He was probably born in Milan. His style was formed on Alvise Vivarini and Antonello da Messina during a stay in Venice (1490–93), and on Leonardo da Vinci in Milan. He went to France in 1507 and may have visited Flanders, which would account for Flemish influence discernible in his work, but he was back in Italy by 1515.
