But actually the Italian Renaissance painter known by this name was Andrea Meldolla. But in Venice he was called Schiavone, because Andrea came from the today's Croatian city Zadar. At his birth, probably around the year 1510, the Dalmatian city was just ruled by Venice. Andrea's father, commander of a nearby garrison post, in turn came from a family from the small town of Meldola in the Italian Romagna. Andrea Meldolla lived and above all worked in Venice - in that century, which in the history of Italian culture is known as the Cinquecento because of its many and varied styles. With such famous painters as Leonardo da Vinci, Raffael, Michelangelo or Tizian, who are still famous today.
Andrea Meldolla, alias Schiavone, did not become quite as famous as these contemporaries. In Venice, where he had probably come in his early youth, he earned his living by painting flags, furniture, chests and similar things. He also created frescoes, panel paintings, portraits, etchings and established himself as an increasingly sought-after artist. Whether Meldolla himself received training in an artist's workshop or was a student of an already well-known painter is highly doubtful. It is more likely that he taught himself his skills autodidactically, by intensively studying the works of other masters. The earliest paintings and etchings preserved by Schiavone date around 1540, including the huge oil painting of the Battle of Charles V and Barbarossa, commissioned by Giorgio Vasari, the Medici architect and court painter.
Art experts see Schiavone's style and manner of composition strongly influenced by the painter Parmigianino and the Mannerist art movement, which proved to be dominant in the course of this century. But Andrea combined this style strongly with the Venetian painting techniques of that time. Sometimes in a very daring form, as contemporaries have already noted. His paintings and frescoes, however, were a model for younger artists such as Tintoretto and Titian. Meldolla - married to Marina de Ricis, the couple presumably had no children - showed a particular willingness to experiment and a free use of the available technical means in his etchings. He printed on paper washed in different colours and added colours to the prints by hand. In this way he created subtle and multi-layered pictorial structures. The methods invented by Andrea Schiavone were adopted a century later by etchers such as Rembrandt.
