		(1) Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione was one of the greatest and most influential Genoese artists of the mid-17th century.
		Castiglione is documented in the studio of Giovanni Battista Paggi from 1626 until May 1627 and through him became aware of the wide variety of styles then current in Genoa, which included late Mannerism, early Baroque classicism, Flemish naturalism and an indigenous Genoese realism.
		Through Paggi’s library and collection of prints, Castiglione was introduced to the work of many Italian and northern European printmakers, and he later found the motifs and compositions from a vast body of Italian prints an almost endless source of material for his own works.

	Restoring a Masterwork I: Castiglione's Immaculate Conception with Saints Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Padua
		A dramatic and highly integrated composition such as Castiglione's altarpiece required a great deal of preparatory work before the artist's brush ever touched the canvas.
		About the same time he made the Institute's altarpiece, Castiglione created other paintings with various saints in attitudes of prayer, adoration, or ecstasy.
		Comparison of those figures to the preparatory sketches indicates that he was not averse to reusing them or adapting them to the requirements of another composition.
