Pietro Dandini – Tuscan School. He was the son and pupil of Vincenzo Dandini, and was also a follower of the manner of Cortona; but he studied also the works of the great masters of the Venetian School, of which he gave evidence in his best or most carefully painted works. He possessed great facility of execution, undertook more than he could accomplish, and as he painted much for gain, his pictures are frequently very slightly and negligently executed.
