Domenico Rinaldo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Domenico Rinaldo (also called Rinaldo Mantovano)was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period.

He practised at Mantua, about 1550, and was a pupil of Giulio Romano. His works show great promise, but his cureer was cut short by a premature death. A Triumph of Julius Cesar by him was found in Vienna, and pictures in the National Gallery, The Capture of Carthage and Continence of Scipio, and the Rape of the Sabine Women, with the subsequent Reconciliation between the Romans and Sabines, have been ascribed Rinaldo instead of Romano.
