At an early age Jacopo Vignali entered the studio of Matteo Rosselli in Florence. In 1616 he joined the Accademia del Disegno in that city. His earliest works were influenced by Rosselli and by Ludovico Cigoli, but in the 1620s he moved away from them and developed a style distinguished by dramatic light effects and rich color. After visiting Rome in 1625, Vignali's manner shifted again, more toward to the austere compositions of Domenico Passignano, Francesco Curradi, and Giovanni Lanfranco. His most famous pupil was Carlo Dolci. while others included Domenico Bettini, Romolo Panfi, and Alessandro Rosi.
