Lorenzo Pasinelli

1629 – 1700

Italian painter. He trained with Guido Reni 's most gifted pupil, Simone Cantarini. As his assistant he absorbed Cantarini's taste for delicately inflected figural poses, for an unusually nuanced palette and for a reflective rather than dramatic interpretation of both religious and secular subjects. After Cantarini's sudden death in Verona in 1648 Pasinelli worked, briefly and unsatisfactorily, with another Cantarini pupil, Flaminio Torri, and there remain problems of attribution over the pictures of this period.
