Carletto Caliari
  • Biography

    Carlo Caliari, called Carletto, was the youngest and most talented son of Paolo Veronese (1528–1588).


    Born in 1570, Carletto was initially trained in his father’s workshop, where he was also influenced by the teaching of his uncle Benedetto (1538–1598). His apprenticeship then continued in the workshop of Francesco Bassano (1549–1592), although it is believed to have been more of a partnership, between 1585–1587.


    After Veronese died in 1588, Carletto joined Benedetto and his brother Gabriele, forming the ‘Haeredes Pauli Caliari Veronensis’ and continuing his father´s workshop.


    Carletto unfortunately died at only twenty-six years of age in 1596.
