About this person

This is a sketch for a fresco ordered by pope Paulus V Borghese for his palace of Montecavallo on the Quirinale in Rome, but the fresco was never executed. One of his pupils was a juvenile Pietro da Cortona who moved to Rome and became one of the towering figures of the Italian Baroque. Another pupil was Giovanni Battista Stefaneschi (1582-1659).
