PIOLA, Domenico
(b. 1627, Genova, d. 1703, Genova)

Janus and Hercule with Peace

1670s
Fresco
Palazzo d'Andrea Spinola, Genoa

In the second half of the 17th century a strong interaction between sculpture and decorative painting can be observed in Genoa. The figures of this fresco can be compared with the sculptures of Pierre Puget executed in Genoa in the same period.
