拍品專文

Salini was long known primarily on account of his appearance as a witness in the lawsuit for libel brought by his friend Giovanni Baglione against Caravaggio in August 1603. The reconstruction of his oeuvre only began in the 1950s. A reassessment of his significance in Caravaggio's circle in Rome has only been made possible, however, in recent years with the publication of articles by Vittoria Markova, Gianni Papi and Mina Gregori in Paragone, XL, New Series, 17 (475), September 1989.

In a letter to the owner, Professor Mina Gregori attributes this picture to Salini and dates this picture to the last years of the artist's activity, possibly 1626.
