Coccorante
Leonardo Carlo Coccorante
1680-1750
Neapolitan School. Active first half of eighteenth century. A pupil, probably, of Angelo Maria Costa, Coccorante was one of the last successful painters of fantasy landscapes, unless we class as such the capricci which Guardi and Canaletto occasionally painted as a kind of relaxation, it would seem, from their vedute subjects. Coccorante was undoubtedly influenced by Salvator Rosa, like whom he showed a respect for observation as a basis on which to develop his imaginative interpretations.
