This group of four canvases made by the Calabrese painter, is affected by the Caravaggesco background updated by Emilian painting and by the Venetian memories of Veronese. The paintings were certainly made after the painter's stay in Naples, in 1656, when he became the only spokesperson for local painting in a city now devastated by the plague.
