Giovanni Battista Trotti called il Malosso (Cremona, 1555 – Parma, June 11, 1619)

1595/99 - Musician Angel

The angel is part of the "Glory of heaven" painted by the Cremonese painter in the vault of the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament of the "Duomo" of Salò (BS), representing the SS. Trinity worshiped by the martyrs whose relics are venerated in the same chapel.

Instruments represented:


Portable Harp: The instrument is interesting, rather than organologic valence, for the human head that decorates the top of the column.
