• Resumen

  • The article presents an unpublished painting by Giovanni Battista Trotti, known as il Malosso, of Christ and the Canaanite Woman. Bearing the monogram of the Cremonese painter, the work takes on strategic importance in the reconstruction of his earliest activity. There are evident connections with autograph works of the 1580s and echoes of Bernardino Campi, Malosso’s teacher, and the picture also affirms the influence of Bernardino Gatti, known as il Soiaro, revealing a style that was to develop in a different direction in the known works of the last two decades of the century. All this would indicate that the canvas was painted during the artist’s youthful phase, in the 1570s.
