Francois de Nome was a French painter of the Baroque period, active mainly in Naples. Born in Metz in the Lorraine region in 1593, de Nome had moved to Rome by 1602 where he worked in the workshop of the Flemish landscape painter Balthasar Lauwers until around 1610 after which he moved to Naples. Work until the mid-twentieth century de Nome's works were believed to be by one Desiderio". However the works formerly attributed to Desiderio have since been identified as the work of at least three artists: de Nome, Didier Barra, who was also from Metz, and a third, as yet unnamed painter. The figures in de Nome's works were painted by other artists, including Belisario Corenzio and Jacob van Swanenburgh. View of Venice. The themes are bizarre, typically decrepit ruins or near-barren buildings in a nearly-surrealist, apparently post-apocalyptic landscape. People are tiny figures, skies overcast, tonalities earthen, and edges indistinct., Menil Collection, 1992-02, 3<
