Drawing
Domenico Fiasella was an Italian Baroque painter active in Genoa and Rome during the 17th century. Working primarily in oil on canvas, he produced religious altarpieces and devotional works characterized by dramatic chiaroscuro and dynamic figural composition typical of Counter-Reformation practice. His output was substantial and his work circulated widely across Italian churches and private collections.
