Salvator Rosa, genannt Salvatoriello (1615-1673) war ein italienischer Zeichner, Maler, Dichter und Schauspieler. Er gehört zu den extravagantesten Künstlerpersönlichkeiten des 17. Jahrhunderts. Seine Darstellungen wilder und bergiger Landschaften zählen zu seinen beliebtesten und einflussreichsten Werken, die den extremen Gegensatz zu den pastoralen Landschaften seines Zeitgenossen Claude Lorraine bilden. Allerdings gehören auch makabre Bildthemen sowie philosophische Allegorien und Historien zu seinen Sujets. Als Dichter gehört er zu den wichtigsten italienischen Satirikern seiner Zeit. || || Salvator Rosa, called Salvatoriello (1615-1673) was an Italian draftsman, painter, poet and actor.
