Calvaert, DENIS, called also DIONISIO FIAMMINGO, painter, was born at Antwerp about 1540, and settled at Bologna. There he opened a school, which numbered among its students the celebrated Guido Reni, Domenichino, and Albani, who afterwards, however, were pupils of the Caracci. Many excellent pictures by him are still preserved at Bologna. He died in 1619.
