Crivelli, Carlo (1430?-94?) , Italian painter, born in Venice. He was influenced by the schools of Padua (Padova) and Ferrara and worked primarily in Fermo and neighboring towns. Crivelli's altarpieces and single panels combine Venetian realism, sumptuous color, and rich ornament, such as garlands of fruit, with polished, linear precision. His delicate early work is emotionally expressive; later work is more monumental and reserved. Examples are the Annunciation (1476, National Gallery, London) and the Coronation of the Virgin (1493, Brera Gallery, Milan).
