varese, primarily known as a landscape painter, showcases a different style in this work. The looser brushstrokes suggest it may have been created later in his career. A student of michele canzio, varese became a member of the ligurian academy in 1838.

this painting has been professionally cleaned by a restorer from the university of amsterdam, preserving its vibrant colors and fine details. Also a small tear has been treated professionally. See the backside of the painting.
