Panini’s bold and innovative vision, his confidence in the rendering and placement of architecture, his command of perspective, the elegance of his figures, the clarity of his colors, and his precise draftsmanship resulted in works which proved immensely popular with Romans and visitors to the Eternal City alike, and also influenced many artists of the subsequent generation. Panini initially trained in his native Piacenza, working with the quadraturisti Giuseppe Natali and Andrea Galluzzi, who specialized in the decoration of walls and ceilings with trompe l'oeil architectural schemes, as well as with the stage designer Francesco Galli Bibiena. In Rome, Panini spent the 1710s and 1720s primarily engaged in painting decorative frescoes in the illusionistic manner he had learned in Piacenza. He was enormously successful, securing the patronage of Pope Innocent XIII, for whom he decorated an apartment in the Palazzo Quirinale. A number of influences can be felt in his easel paintings of the 1730s and 40s, which marked the apex of his busy and prolific career. Panini’s adept rendering of minute detail took cues from the works of Gaspare Vanvitelli, another master of Roman vedute painting, while his inclusion of lively figures full of vitality and dynamism evidences a debt to Salvator Rosa. The capricci of Giovanni Ghisolfi, meanwhile, inspired Panini to depart from the mere depiction of real sites and scenes to the creation of fantastical new ones borne solely of his imagination.
