Giovan Francesco Gessi

Giovanni Francesco Gessi was an Italian Baroque painter, one of the greatest masters of the Bolognese school of painting in the first half of the 17th century. Around 1607 he was an apprentice in the studio of Guido Reni. Together with his teacher he worked in Rome, Mantua and Ravenna.

During his apprenticeship Giovanni Francesco Jesse studied different artistic movements in contemporary Italy (around 1600), in particular those of the Bolognese and Neapolitan schools, and was able to create his own, original style by combining them and their mutual influence. He painted mainly on religious themes, but also on mythological subjects.
