The Life and Art of Pedro Caetano
Pedro Caetano, also known as Mestre Ataíde, was a Brazilian painter, sculptor, gilder, and teacher. Born in Mariana, Brazil, he was a significant figure in the Baroque-Rococo school of Minas Gerais, where his method of composition—particularly regarding perspective works on church ceilings—influenced the region until the middle of the nineteenth century. His artistic style is notably characterized by the use of bright colors, with a particular emphasis on the use of blue.
His professional life involved significant collaborations, including the gilding of images for the Sanctuary of Bom Jesus de Matosinhos in Congonhas and the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi in Ouro Preto between 1781 and 1818. In 1818, he attempted to establish an art school in his home town of Mariana.
