He created mainly religious paintings, as well as mythological and allegorical scenes, and worked in Rome, Naples, and Bologna. Reni trained first in the studio of Denis Calvaert and later joined the Accademia degli Incamminati, becoming a central figure in the Bolognese School. His commissions included altarpieces and frescoes, such as his work at the Casino dell'Aurora in Rome.
