"In 1531-32- Dosso was engaged, again with his brother, on an extensive fresco decoration for Bishop Clesio in the Castel Buonconsiglio at Trento (where Romanino of Brescia was called to work at the same time); Dosso's paintings there show an alteration from their former style that is markedly towards the style of Giulio [Romano]. In the Buonconsiglio frescoes and in the major easel works that closely succeed them the libertarian attitudes towards form and expression that had characterized so much of Dosso's art before are chastened: drawing becomes firm and sharp and contests the assertiveness of colour; surfaces take on a harder brilliance; fantasy and free invention yield to a new desire for classicist correctness."
