_Sassoferrato_ (Eclectic: 1605-1685).
Giovanni Battista Salvi, called Sassoferrato from his
birthplace, not far from Urbino, is generally described as a
follower of the Carracci, but he seems to have been chiefly
a copyist of Raphael, Perugino, and other early masters.
Compare Sassoferrato's Madonnas with the earlier models, and
the distinction between sentimentality and sentiment becomes
plain. His works are, however, marked by real feeling, and he
maintained a certain elevation of style.
