(35 x 23.2cm), Drawings, Bernardo Strozzi (Italian, Genoa 1581–1644 Venice), After training with Cesare Corte and about the time of his religious vocation, Strozzi entered the workshop of Pietro Sorri (1556-1622), the innovative Sienese painter sojourning in Genoa from 1956 to 1598, who led Strozzi's taste away from the somewhat artificial elegance of Cambiaso's late Mannerist style towards a greater naturalism
