CRIVELU, CARLO, born in Venice alwut 1430-40, died after 1493. Venetian school ; pupil of Antonio and Bartolommeo da Mu- rano, whose studio he entered probably about 1450. Settled in Ascoli ; as early as 1468 began to paint exclusively in the cities of the Marches, and laboured there to the end of his days. In 1490 he was knighted by Prince Ferdinand of Capua, but this did not affect the steady exercise of his profes- sion. He was a painter of remarkable tal- ent, fond of elaborate detail, never careless in work, and as conscientious as he was skilful. At times he painted with the mys- tic feeling of Angelico, but his figures are often exaggerated in action and mannered in style. Crivelli never abandoned the sys- tem of tempera in which he had been taught, and while other artists were trying oils, worked on in the old method with great energy and success. No pictures of the period have better resisted the ravages of time than his, as numerous examples in the Brera at Milan, the Berlin Museum, the Vatican, the Kensington Museum, the Na- tional Gallery, and Dudley House, London, testify. Among his best works are : Ma- donna della Rondine, Madonna with Saints (1476), Madonna and Saints (1482), Brera, Milan ; Annunciation (I486), National Gal- lery, London ; Madonna with Saints, Dud- OPVS-KAROU-CR1VELLI VNET ley House ; and Pieta, Vatican.
