Agostino Carracci ( kə-RAH-chee, UK also kə-RATCH-ee, Italian: [aɡoˈstiːno karˈrattʃi]; also Caracci; 16 August 1557 – 22 March 1602) was an Italian painter, printmaker, tapestry designer, and art teacher. He was, together with his brother, Annibale Carracci, and cousin, Ludovico Carracci, one of the founders of the Accademia degli Incamminati (Academy of the Progressives) in Bologna. Intended to devise alternatives to the Mannerist style favoured in the preceding decades, this teaching academy helped propel painters of the School of Bologna to prominence.
