Wendy in the style of José de Ribera. Ribera was born in Játiva (Valencia), Spain in 1591 but lived and worked in Parma, Rome and Naples, where he developed a style based on that of Caravaggio. It was during his time in Parma, Rome and his early years in Naples that Ribera studied and rethought the language of naturalism. Ribera’s work passed through different stylistic phases and made use of a wide range of subjects, resulting in a profound interaction of style and iconography. During his time in Rome, Ribera deployed a precise descriptive manner and a use of chiaroscuro. He is one of my favourite painters. Although the facial fidelity is not perfect, these images are forever Wendy.
