Professor Emerita of Art History at Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA, Catherine Puglisi specializes in Italian Baroque art. A recognized authority on seventeenth-century painting, she has written Caravaggio (1998, translated into Italian, French, and Chinese), the monograph and catalogue raisonné, Francesco Albani (1999), and journal articles on the Carracci, Guido Reni, and Venetian art. With her co-author William Barcham, she has investigated the iconography of the Man of Sorrows in the Venetian artistic tradition, in a 2011 exhibition in New York, in several journal essays and in the book, Art and Faith in the Venetian World (2017). Her current book project addresses radical style change in Baroque painting.
