ชีวประวัติ:

Andrea Mainardi, also known as il Chiaveghino, was an Italian painter of the late-Renaissance period. He was active in Cremona between 1590 and 1613. The artist's early formation is unclear, with some sources suggesting he was a student of Giulio Campi or Bernardino Campi. Mainardi's style is characterized as having 'an imprint spiccatamente bernardiniana' (Guazzoni, 1985). He painted in various locations, including his hometown of Cremona and possibly other areas. Some of his works demonstrate a 'buon seguace di Bernardino Campi' (Ticozzi), while others are described as mediocre due to being created for low prices and with haste. Antonio Campi praised Mainardi's paintings, highlighting their quality and the artist's diligence.
