Benedetto Luti's contemporaries

A work made of pen and brown ink and brush and brown wash, over black and red chalk, heightened with white opaque watercolor, on joined sheets of laid paper, mounted to paperboard.
Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti, by Giovanni Paolo Panini, ca. 1756–58
MADONNA AND SAINTS
A Young Woman Buying a Pink from a Young Man, by Giovanni Battista Piazzetta, c. 1740
A work made of chiaroscuro woodcut, from three blocks in pink, dark blue, and light blue, on cream laid paper.
This is a painting of a group engaged in a music session, all looking towards a large open music book in a grand, architectural setting. Behind the group are tall, ornate columns and an arched background that opens up to show a cloudy blue sky. Most of the people have open mouths as if they are singing, while one man in the back seems to be conducting, holding a up roll of paper. Some of the people in the group are seated in cushioned wooden chairs, and a yellowish cloth is draped over the surface that the large book rests on. There is a string instrument similar to a cello near the bottom left corner. The colors used are rich, earthy browns, yellows, and reds, with elements of blue and white clothing. All of the people have pale skin, and two have long white mustaches.

The works in this room are listed below.
