Baldassarre Carrari il Giovane

Baldassarre Carrari il Giovane (born circa 1460 - 14 February, 1516) was an Italian painter, active in his native Forli, and also in the town of Ravenna, from 1486 till his death in Forlì. He was son of a Matteo, but a relative of Baldassarre Carrari il Vecchio.[1]

Corrado Ricci considered him a distant follower of Melozzo da Forlì (died 1494 in Rome, perhaps through contacts with Melozzo's pupil, Marco Palmezzano, but also painting with a style influenced by Lorenzo Costa and Niccolo Rondinelli of Ravenna.[2]
