Circle of Margherita Caffi

Circle of Margherita Caffi refers to works produced by artists closely associated with or influenced by Margherita Caffi (c. 1650, 1710), the celebrated Italian still-life painter renowned for her elaborate floral compositions. Artists within this circle worked in her distinctive style, characterized by lush arrangements of flowers in decorative vases set against dark backgrounds. These works, frequently appearing at auction, reflect the broader tradition of Italian Baroque still-life painting centered around the Lombard and Milanese artistic milieu.
