Francesco Hayez was an Italian painter who spent most of his career in Milan after training in Rome with Canova and Ingres. He is remembered as a key transitional figure from Neoclassicism to Romanticism in Italian paintings. |
However, Francesco Hayez works in more Romantic in subjects matter than in technique. Hayez preferred to paint religious, historical, and mythological figures and also painted the portraits of many prominent 19th century Italians. Francesco Hayez also taught at the Brera and became the school’s director in 1860. |
