BAGLIONE, Giovanni (b. ca. 1566, Roma d. 1643, Roma) |
 |
St John the Baptist in the Wilderness1610Oil on canvas, 194 x 151 cm Private collection | |
|
Baglione, a colleague and rival of Caravaggio, explored the subject of St John the Baptist in the Wilderness as early as 1600 and he continued to paint images of St John the Baptist throughout his long and productive career. The probable model for the present version could be Caravaggio's St John the Baptist in Kansas City. | |
