		John Marston's 1606 tragedy has some wonderful touches, and the Headfirst company turn in a clutch of strong and thoughtful performances which convert the heroine's stoical acceptance of her unjust end into a stream of sarcastic vitriol at her mistreatment by husband and assailant alike.

		The recent discovery of documents and paintings (Marani, 1989; Shell and Sironi) related to his presence in Savona in 1537 excludes the previous identifications of the artists with Giovanni Pedrini or Pietro Rizzo.
		These paintings are strongly influenced by the work of Leonardo, often deriving, with variations, from his lost Leda or from other late drawings and compositions by Leonardo, thus suggesting a close relationship of the artist with Leonardo during the latter’s second Milanese period (mid-1508–1513).
		The autograph paintings, however, are characterized by a small white vase that may be the symbolic signature of the artist.
